“End of an era” – Gloucester set to lose three ‘fan favourites’ in the summer

#2. Billy Twelvetrees to Ealing/Ospreys

According to journalist Jon Newcombe, Gloucester might have to bid farewell to Billy Twelvetrees as he could be signing up with the recently established team that is a result of the merger between Ospreys and Ealing.

This indicates that the amalgamation plans are quite progressed, with discussions of player recruitment happening as a united entity instead of two individual clubs.

In 2013, he debuted against Scotland in the Six Nations tournament and earned the title of man of the match in his second game versus Ireland.

Nonetheless, his stint in the international arena was curtailed following England’s unsatisfactory showing at the Rugby World Cup in 2015, and he hasn’t represented the national team since then.
