Today I have caught up with Sam Wilson. A dynamic 9 with bags of potential. Having seen first hand whilst the Colts last season he is one to watch for the future. It was a pleasure to see him make his first XV debut whilst still a Colt and has gone on to make more appearances and is still only 18.

Your first full season as a senior. Hows it gone?

Yea I think my first season as a senior has gone pretty well with a few first team appearances and a successful season with the 2’s

What would your message be to the who are entering the seniors this next season?

A message to those joining seniors next season is just to try and enjoy not just the rugby but the social aspect of senior rugby too especially at a club like this. Seeing what the seniors offered whilst still a colt gave me the hunger to play 1st XV. There is loads of talent coming through again and it will be exciting to see the seniors next season. Get down for pre season, enjoy the beers, get involved in the banter and the rest will be history.

Do you have any specific goals for the season ahead?

Goals for next season would be just to keep enjoying my rugby and hopefully getting some more experience with the first team

Obviously were in isolation at the moment. A tough time for everyone. How have you been getting on?

I think I’m just in the same boat as everyone else really, just bored without the rugby and a few pints after a game on a Saturday, it’s a shame we couldn’t finish the season especially that we were still in the county cup and could have won it. During isolation I’ve been doing alright , trying to keep myself busy either playing Xbox or going for runs and gymming quite a lot

Home workout routine?
A home workout routine for me is following jackos fitness plan that he puts in the chat for us to do every day as well as running

Go-to home cooking/homemade meal?

My go to homemade meal would probably be something boring like chicken and rice with ketchup of course

Books, Netflix, chill tunes?

I don’t really read much but I have been watching a lot of Rick and Morty on Netflix

What Takeaway or beverage you are missing?

I’m missing Sue’s chicken baguettes on a Thursday after training and I am missing Coronas from the club

Activity you can't wait to get back to obviously other than rugby?

An activity I can’t wait to get back to is just going to the gym really, as boring as it may seem I’m really missing it
