George Smiths reason for joining Wasps

Post by Doghashadhisday »

On skysports George Smith is quoted as saying:
Although we really enjoyed our time at Lyon and in France, the opportunity to bring my family to London and experience the London life - although we've been here in the past on holidays, we've never actually been here to live - was something that I wanted to do

Has anyone told him they are in Coventry which is a park and ride for Leicester :smt003

Was probably part of the deal his agent negotiated for him. Staunchbury and Jones live in London anyway and I am sure they are not the only ones.
Mind you, put's a new angle on how Exeter might have sold Dean Mumm............!

I suspect that he will be living in London as the Wasps training ground is still at they home of Wasps FC, Twyford Sports Ground. 2-3 times a month to Coventry is a lot easier from London that 3-4 times a week to London from Coventry.
