DFU status for Wasps.

Interesting to see if saints can build on last week or if they just a derby day thing.

[16th man]

Hell of a pass from WLR.

[twitchy]

Wasps look up for it.

[twitchy]

Curry jokes should be banned from now on.

[16th man]

Well that's both sides of Wasps in the space of 10 minutes isn't it?

[twitchy]

They make it look so easy.

[Banquo]

Tuala and North not interested in defending hasn't helped Saints much.

Beauty for Live Fast;
‘Is it done yet?’
‘If you watch us regularly, you’ll know it’s not done yet’.
Brilliant.

[Banquo]

lol, Gibson gasses Daly.

aint that right.

[Banquo]

Brilliant by Thompson. Enjoyable match.

[twitchy]

Yeah good game.

[I R Geech]

Phew.

[fivepointer]

Another really enjoyable game.
Wasps are great to watch when they are clicking in attack.
fair play to Saints who made a game of it and did very well to get a try BP.

[Scrumhead]

Shame Bassett’s try was chalked off

[fivepointer]

Haskell pretty cheesed off to get penalised for his challenge. Think he has a point. We all want dangerous high tackles to be penalised, but some of this seatbelt stuff is in no way dangerous. Some contact around the head during a game is inevitable unless we ban all tackling above waist height.

[Oakboy]

Rowlands is miles better than Myall, IMO.

[Spiffy]

Eddie Jones should bite the bullet and take Cipriani on tour. Wade too - best finisher in the league and his defence has really improved. Loved to see him drop the massive George North.

The ewok will need a high octane 12 to pair with Cipriani to pull that off. A lot of the space that Cipriani creates is built off Gopperth. If Farell is at 12....forget about it.

[twitchy]

Yeah there is no way EJ takes cips or wade I think.

[fivepointer]

He probably wont take Cips - and thats our loss - but Wade is making a case that is very hard to ignore. His defence and general physicality have improved enormously this season.

[Timbo]

Personally, I wish Eddie had made a concerted effort to convert Cips to fullback when he took over. Could have added a different dimension to our attack, a quality playmaker at 15 is something England have rarely had. He showed today he’s still got the athleticism for fb. A nonsense that a player that talented will probably leave England with so few caps.

Like a rugby Le Tissier.
