The government has intervened in the growing financial crisis engulfing rugby union in England by appointing two independent advisers to assist with the “urgent work” required to help secure the sport’s immediate future.
The British & Irish Lions are set for a significant boost for the 2025 tour of Australia with Premiership Rugby ready to bring its final forward to accommodate more preparation time for the series against the Wallabies.
England's policy of refusing to select overseas-based players for international duty is set to remain, according to Premiership Rugby chief executive Simon Massie-Taylor.

Premiership Rugby cannot rule out more clubs joining Worcester and Wasps in being suspended from the league on financial grounds as league officials grapple with the crisis engulfing the domestic game.
It is less than a month since the Premiership Rugby Limited chief executive, Simon Massie-Taylor, spoke of the doomsday scenario that loomed over club rugby given the widespread financial turmoil. Wasps’ suspension on Wednesday after the admission they are likely to go into administration brings PRL face-to-face with that very scenario and the prospect of finishing the league with 11 teams. What’s worse is that come May there could even be fewer.
Wasps got there in the end and, given the spectre of administration emerged just 48 hours before this nervous victory, they can be forgiven for doing things the hard way. They were excellent for 50 minutes, romping into a 29-point lead with Josh Bassett scoring two tries and Jack Willis proving a formidable force. Back came Bath to give Wasps a sizeable dose of the jitters but the visitors showed impressive resolve to prove victorious.
