The fact that Dai didn’t pick Umaga at the beginning of last season and stuck with Lima at 10 was inevitably his downfall.
As we are now seeing, if you give well-coached, hungry, talented youngsters an opportunity - they can do great things quickly.
Dai was a lovely guy, but in his final season he became too safety conscious in both his style of play and his selections.
The future of Wasps right now is incredibly exciting.
The buzz in that changing room must be humming.
Home-grown talent coming through and prospering.
Joe must be so thrilled he committed to this team, squad and management.
What a few years ahead.
