Willis is preparing to face Leinster in the Heineken Champions Cup semi-finals on Saturday.
ENGLAND AND TOULOUSE flanker Jack Willis has urged the Rugby Football Union to reconsider its policy which prevents the selection of foreign-based players.
England boss Steve Borthwick has special dispensation to select the back-row forward this season following Wasps’ demise but that situation is poised to change following the autumn World Cup. “It’s not up to me how these decisions go. If it was, I think I know which way I’d be heading for. Hopefully they think it through and hopefully things can change to a degree and open up a little bit more on the leniency.
Willis is currently lining up alongside the likes of France stars Antoine Dupont, Romain Ntamack, Thomas Ramos, Julien Marchand and Thibaud Flament at club level, in addition to Italy’s Ange Capuozzo. Willis has been “blown away” by his club’s backing in terms of his England career and did not feel the need to include specific clauses relating to future international availability in his new contract.
