Jamie Roberts left the Wales training camp to return to Harlequins this week after being told he faced having his contract terminated unless he reported for duty at the club. If Premiership Rugby decides Bath have a case to answer, an independent disciplinary panel will be set up. After the North case Premiership Rugby said it would be scrutinising the contracts of players. Warren Gatland said last week that he hoped Roberts would be available for selection against South Africa while the Wales head coach declared that Faletau would be involved. François is a bit beaten up physically having had the most minutes of our Test players, but he should recover in time.
