It’s been an unfortunate but recurring theme on this season of the Scrum Down, but the woes facing Gallagher Premiership teams Worcester Warriors and Wasps have accelerated in recent weeks, and to find out more, Alex Lowe once again joins the podcast to talk through what’s happening in the Rugby Union. Alex recaps some of the thrilling action from the rugby World Cup 2021 in New Zealand and premiership results from the past weekend, before Alex Lowe joins the show for the main segment of the episode. Worcester Warriors have now been liquidated, with players and staffs contracts terminated and the best players being snapped up across the league, but the future of the team is still unclear, and the same can be said for Wasps who are facing a similar crisis. Corbs and Alex discuss what the league can do to help and how it may need to change to prevent future team troubles and more on this episode of the Scrum Down Podcast.
