Bath Rugby pulled off something of a coup when signing David Wilson from Newcastle Falcons at the end of the 2008/09 season.
He is a fine young prop who is strong in the set piece, has a great work ethic and is very talented with ball in hand.
The tighthead prop is regarded as one of the brightest front-row prospects in English rugby, and he made his Test debut against Argentina in Manchester on June 6th, retaining his place for the second Test in Salta the following weekend.
He has gone on to earn 16 England caps, and has been selected to join the 2011 Rugby World Cup squad in New Zealand this Autumn.
