My half time take away.
We should be well up, knock ons are absolutely killing us, at crucial moments too, Brad knocking on in what looked a certain try. Every time we get any momentum we knock on.
Sops off target, left 6 easy points out there.
Positives, we do look better with Gops, at last someone who can read the game and create something. The boys are putting in effort, that's for sure but the basics are lacking. Scrum has parity at least, arguably we have them there, line out decent.. I can see Mjnozzi causing problems later in the season.
I'm disappointing with the scoreboard but i'm more pleased with the performance thus far...the effort and energy are there.
One thing us Wasps fans have to accept this season is blatant yellows will not be given to our opposition...that said, this young ref has been good.

Personally I thought Lima had a good half and Odogwu is superb so far. Our big No 8 is a ball of energy and we just need to learn to follow him. All the pressure should have been more points but so far positive. Good to see the Lima- Jimmy axis working - last season could have been far better.
I'll take the rose tints off for now.

Looks a lot crisper so far and we could have been more up without mistakes. Lima looking good and playing a lot flatter. JG as first receiver more often than not. Front row have been effective and our 8 is carrying well.

Thats fair Neils, i'll go with that. Yes the 8, can we have a nickname for him cause I can't spell him, has looked like he's had 5 shreddied wheat for breakfast. Lima playing better for sure, there has been a bit of swapping as first receiver too, which mixes things up. Kill the errors and we should take this. As big as Barf pack are, we are more than matching them.
Been a critic of Dan this season but he's looking alot sharper.

Gaskell off...doesnt look good, shoulder injury. Will be a big loss, arguably MOM for the first half.

Awful passage of play, Odogwu misses Roko, bath move upfield, and from a wasps ruck, ZZ makes a shocking decision to produce the worst kick seen to man, 2 meters straight into the 9's hand...Bath grind to the line and in front.
Brookes taking Boyce to the cleaners so Bath make a change.

Couple of passages of offloading flowing play and I thought maybe... we’ve got our Wasps back???

Definitely a better performance, some inaccuracies that should decrease as this group play together more.

Lima and Jimmy were class, Sione an absolute beast- reminds me of Nathan, Paulo looks a real handful and Minozzi looks really really sharp.
