I, like others, think that we all too easily forget how GREAT that 2004 team was.
It was a team of invincibles.
I was there for each match of that campaign.
That match in Perpignan alone was off the richter scale. It was colossal. Brutal. Intimidating.
I think for the very fact alone that there haven't been crowds all this season is a psychological hurdle that still needs to be overcome when they get the opportunity.
In Dublin in 2004....there were 47,000 Munster fans all dressed in red. There were about 1,000 Wasps fans doing their best to be heard.
It was febrile. Mad. Insane. The whole stadium shook each time Munster scored.
So for me....I think this current 2020 team can go all the way.
It's so exciting. It's full of confidence. Full of talent. And I'm a big fan of Jacob's.
If they can hold their nerve and play with freedom next week...then I think Wasps can lift the Premiership Cup and win the whole thing!
However, for a composite side, this is my team (based on ability, pace, blend, experience, fighting battles on foreign fields, international and top-level know-how....and seeing it through to the death).
J Lewsey, Zach Kibirige, F Waters, S Abbott, T Voyce; A King, Dan Robson; C Dowd, T Leota, Kieran Brookes, S Shaw, Joe Launchbury, J Worsley, Jack Willis, L Dallaglio (capt).
Replacements: Simon McIntyre, Tommy Taylor, Will Green, Will Rowlands, Thomas Young, Rob Howley, Jimmy Gopperth, A Erinle
