Gareth Chilcott after his last game for Bath in 1993

It would appear Prior is also still open to playing on somewhere, though views Perth as "home" at this point.
To me that reads like finishing Overseas while he is still fit and then returning to Perth for a Force role, but obviously a total speculation.
Wells is returning to Sydney in the Legal system, which if his media release is anything to go by, he will be well suited to...

Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
As with KB a year of relatively light duty can result in massive healing of the body. When the kids got back in the pool after the COVID lockdowns there were heaps of them making PBs despite having been land training. I hope Ian keeps connected to the game, he brings the "cement" like quality that bings all the bricks around him together - one of the absolute club legends IMHO.

Without commenting on the wider 2025 speculation; it's nice to look at options but from my POV Harry Potter is the best one @ 15 from what we saw before he got hurt. He can play wing but he was really dynamic from the back. A definite keeper.

Potter was having a great season until he was crueller by injury, real competitor for the ball and strong runner. Looked more at home in FB, I think he'd benefit from training around KB though (as I think many of them would) as it appears he's been a really positive influence in the training environment.

The presser about wells leaving was really well put. He seems like a really insightful man, who knows who he is. I really found it interesting his quote that a lot of rugby fans would see him as an unremarkable player. This is one of those things that we tend to gloss over, that there is a huge psychological piece to a professional players skill set. They need to know that they can go out and get it done, despite the press and criticism on the webs.
He seemed to put a lot in for us, and for that i am grateful!
