Richard Wigglesworth has moved on from his part in the recent Barbarians controversy by agreeing a move to Leicester - putting him on course for a triple-century of Premiership appearances.
The former England scrum-half apologised a fortnight ago after being among a group of Barbarians players who breached Covid protocols, which led to the cancellation of their match with the national team at Twickenham.
Now, as he awaits an impending RFU disciplinary hearing, the 37-year-old has joined the Tigers, ready to play his part in a revival mission, after a decade of success at Saracens.

Wigglesworth, who has played 288 games in English rugby's top tier since emerging at Sale, said: 'I still feel I'm fit, I'm healthy and I can contribute.
'Tigers are a great fit. I've always wanted a challenge. Leicester are the biggest club in the country and want to get back to the top. That isn't easy and I'm not interested in easy.'
The Dragons have been forced to postpone two Pro 14 fixtures - with a third under review - in light of seven positive Covid-19 results.
The Welsh Rugby Union confirmed that the Newport-based region would be closed, with all players, staff and management self-isolating, pending further tests.
Saturday's game with Connacht is postponed, along with the game at Glasgow in eight days.
