Seeing future rugby player busy leaving first college (9)
I believe the answer is:
prophetic
'seeing future rugby player busy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'leaving first college' is the wordplay.
'leaving' becomes 'prophet' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'first' becomes 'i' (I in Roman numerals eg Elizabeth I).
'college' becomes 'c'.
'prophet'+'i'+'c'='PROPHETIC'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for prophetic that I've seen before include "inspirational" , "divination" , "Foreseeing future events" , "Divinatory, prescient" , "Oracular, predicting events" .)
