Theo for Brad strange one. Would have thought Vailanu.

Yeah, or Oghre.

I can see us not wanting Barbeary and Vailanu together in the back row.


I suppose Theo (TV3 ?) Offers a better line out option

Looking forward to seeing Ogre on for Taylor and Paulo on for Zach.

Lucky not to get a yellow warning or Sale to go for line out again

Looked ok in patches but we're giving them endless territory through penalties again.

Minozzi been good so far.
Launchbury has been excellent.
Zach looks a bit off par. Would prefer the intensity of Paulo.

Tommy T gives away too many penalties, although his effort is good.
Would like to see the injection of pace and power of Oggre.

And would like our scrum to get one over theirs this half.
At line out time....we’re now limited....so timing and execution is going to be everything.

I think Brookes should have been red carded for that obvious shoulder charge in to the ruck. No attempt to bind, shoulder to head. Identical to the last one he got his marching orders for. Well, OK, he poleaxed Brad this time, but it was an identically brain dead move by Brookes.

I am seeing too many brainless panic type plays right now. I mean, that pass by Josh to Yarde. Just how bad can you get it?

Somebody seems to have drained Kibirige's tank before he came on. Kick chase? Nah, let's amble up instead.

And Vailanu doing his usual, 'Doesn't matter where I am, I can't be offside,' trick.

We just don't look at all convincing.

That we are barely behind is amazing.

Match stat.
Wasps have scored more points in the second-half than any other premiership team this season.

Yes, but how many did we win?

Sometimes I think we try to win scrum penalties rather than just scrum to maintain possession.
That just seems ego motivated and unnecessary.
