If Wasps could field the team that played at either Quins or against Chiefs they'd walk this.

With that side, however, I don't see us beating Glos.

Three props on the bench for Wasps? Eddie needs to have a look, five locks is like sooo last week.

Is Symons crocked or just out of favour?

Wasps do look very vulnerable. Glos home form is excellent so you've got to fancy them.

Most of our wings are crocked so Trinder at 11 is a bit of a waste really. Braley over Vellacott is interesting. Sharples has had very little game time.

Doubt Wasps would 'walk this' with any side at Kingsholm frankly this season. At the Ricoh certainly they would, although that away game was far closer than the scoreline suggested.

Unavailable for selection:

Lloyd Evans, James Hanson, Willi Heinz, Tom Marshall, Ben Morgan, Ross Moriarty, Henry Purdy, Val Rapava Ruskin, Jacob Rowan, Andy Symons, Ollie Thorley

Symons long term injury, also unavailable are taylor, pdj, launch, Willis, Willis jr, Haskell, Hughes, Cips, lovobalavu, Eastmond, daly, Watson, armitage, oghre (who can cover flanker). May be missing more from the backrow if we're using a prop there and would guess Garett is out since he canplay there too.

Not sure why Owen wiliams is nowhere near the match day sqaud either!

Its still a very decent Wasps side and I am nervous about 36 at 13 frankly, ther could be space for Wade to manoeuvre there.

There are tries in this game I reckon, just hope we score more than them.

One of the local rags, local to Wasps anyway if not local to Raggs, did a XV from your injured players. It was a shocking effort

Eta

Only a XV?
Hah!
Bath have been unable to put out an entire 23 a few times this season.

Hell, we can currently do
Catt, Dunn, Perenise
Ewels, Atwood
Ellis, Louw, Grant

WHomer, Burns
Clarke, Joseph
Banahan, Rokouguni, Watson

Walker, Knight, KPN, Douglas, Underhill
Evans, Priestland, Williams

I've got a few spares I can use too; and only 1 player out of position (2 if you inlude a lack of SH specialist on the bench).

A good 12-13 of those would make a first choice 23 as well

A sad season for Bath with both Exeter and Glaws establishing themselves as the big teams in the SW

A] Fuck off
B] Surely Ex established themselves ahead of us a couple of years ago?
C] I'd hardly call Glaws "established" as ahead of us just yet...

my apologies, Exeter and now Glaws

Bath are definitely suffering more, won't argue that.

It was a pathetic attempt at a xv. Could now be updated a bit with a few more sensibly positioned. Daly should be at 9 since he's covered for us in the past there.

Typical a Waps v Glous game and you have to make all about Bath.

BTW Tigers have MOC as HC so that’s like having 50 players missing....

Well, if we're going to talk about head coaches - how about Quins?!?

True, quite early this year

Another try by Trinder

Future England wing!!

Wade scores in last minute and with conversion Wasps get a draw, 25-25. Thats 3 games today with last minute tries.
