Christian Wade is four tries away from breaking Chris Ashton’s all-time Premiership Rugby record of 101, as try-scoring continues to dominate the competition’s latest narrative.

Wade currently stands on 97 Premiership Rugby tries, putting him within reach of Ashton’s record. The milestone places the former England and Wasps wing at the centre of the league’s scoring story.

Ashton’s benchmark of 101 remains the mark Wade is pursuing. Reaching 98 tries would move Wade to within three of the record, while four further scores would see him draw level with Ashton.

The supplied reporting does not provide details of the fixture or fixtures in which Wade is expected to continue his pursuit. His next opportunity to add to his tally, and the timing of any possible record, therefore remain unspecified.
