Exeter v Racing - what’s the best outcome for Wasps?
« on: October 17, 2020, 04:36:26 PM »
Purely for selfish reasons, what result do we want this afternoon?

Do we want a confident Exeter and European champions, but may have peaked?

Or do we want a wounded Exeter, maybe doubting themselves and not quite as fresh?

Thoughts?

Exeter win for me. Don't think there's a huge advantage for us either way, so would like a win.

Wouldn't mind if that came from an overtime win though.

Slightly OT, but did nobody think "oh, the teams' kits look very similar from a distance, maybe we should ask one of them to wear darker shirts"?

Racing look awful so far.
Their Number 9 keeps wanting glory moments where clear heads are needed.
He’s an absolute liability. Take him off.

You are right, so similar.  I am struggling to tell difference - apart from the fact the team going forward is Exeter.   At this rate they will be able to rest players with our game in mind.

Exeter with a few injuries to prominent players (about 8 or 9 would do)

Anyone else noticed the flying in off the feet is now acceptable again.

Finn Russell is class though.
I hope he goes on the Lions Tour and gets the opportunity to stake his claim.

The Racing Number 9 is shocking.
He’s responsible for every break down in play.

Absolutely no idea. Really it's glass half full Vs half empty. You could argue how it benefit us either way.

I personally want it so everyone gets a trophy.
Exeter - champions cup
Wasps - Gallagher prem
Bristol - challenge cup
Sale - premiership rugby cup
Bath - nothing
Saracens - relegated

Everybody wins
