[Raggs]

Some serious carrying power on the bench for Wasps, not a bad starting side for it either.

looks so much stronger for having Launchbury. Barbeary will get a big physical test tonight.

[Peej]

Sale resting a fair few but don't hold much hope for Wasps. Sale not the best team for Barbeary's strengths

[padprop]

Akker's throwing isn't the best is it

[Scrumhead]

That was a tough watch ... compelling in it’s own way, but very little quality on display.

[Peej]

Wasps are just awful. Inexcusably terrible. The end of the season can't come soon enough.

Looked like the players agreed. I had to check my calendar, looked like a mid table side with nothing to play for, who were sick of the sight of each other, desperate to get on there summer holidays.
