Is Koroiyadi in his last season?
No
Thanks, has there ever been a player who has been an academy player who has been given a senior contract before their final year?
Depends how far back you go, pretty sure Luke Abraham generation sometimes went pro from 16. George Ford 100% was on a professional contract from before 18.

Saw on instagram that
Charlie Barraclough (2/6)
Finn Carnduff (4/6)
Morgan Meredith (10)
Joe Woodward (10,12,13,15)
George Loose (10, 12, 13, 15)
Got called up to the England U18 training camp
3 who can play 10 and 2 centres is a good fit for us. Hopefully see them in Tigers 1st team in a couple of years.

Jed Gelderbloom is on a trail with edinbrugh rugby.
Jed came off the bench for Heriots today in the Super Six. They lost heavily to Ayrshire Bulls as the Heriots forwards were dominated but a friend at the match thought he performed well in a tough game.
Edinburgh and Glasgow loan their academy players out to Super Six clubs for game time so I'm not sure if Jed was there as part of his trial or if it's a sign that he's going to be with Edinburgh longer term as a stage 3 SRU academy player - the same stage that Grahamslaw and Muncaster joined at.

Anyone else watch the BMC final today on YouTube?
Woodward looks seriously good
I haven't seen it but Woodward seemed to be involved in a lot of tries in the last academy season, perhaps when Pollard is at the end of his contract we wont need to replace directly having him and Lancaster

Woodward would still only be 21, Wouldn't be surprised if he stays in the centres with Loose.
Meredith who played 10 looks good as well though
