[Rossm]

Current odds with Sky Bet:

Wasps 1/33.
Bath 10/1.
Draw 20/1.

Not quite as confident as I was. Lots of impact on the bench, but I'm not sure about that starting backrow

[WonkyWasp]

Tom Prydie was once of this parish wasn't he?  I seem to remember him from AP  and  there was disappointment when he left.  Great to see Ben Morris starting  -  so reliable wherever he is  and much under-rated  I always think.

Prydie made 6 appearances for Wasps 10 years ago. Didn't trouble the scoreboard

I expect Ben will lead us out as it's his 50th Wasps' cap.

Great to see the depth start to return and I love how Lee tries to reward good performances with starts or games the following week.

Nathan has looked good again recently, bit of a concern.

[Rossm]

A couple of points from Bobby:

REWARDED: The players who made an impact from the bench against Exeter Chiefs have clearly got their reward with five of them making the starting XV. It's a bold move to do so, but let us remember, for the best part of an hour, Wasps were pretty average against Exeter Chiefs
KNOCK ON EFFECT: What the changes do mean is Wasps have an even stronger bench than last week. All three front-row replacements bring dynamism, Fifita and Barbeary are serious weapons to hold in reserve while Porter, Mills and Watson all bring real quality.

Great ti see him again on CBS

Current odds with Sky Bet:

Wasps 1/33.
Bath 10/1.
Draw 20/1.

Those odds are insane.

Whilst I fully expect Wasps to win, I think this is going to be a close game so when I saw that paddy power had a Bath win with a +19 handicap at 10/11, I must admit thought it would be rude not to put a cheeky £5 on. Wasps to win by 19 or under would make me rather happy ahaha

[Vespula Vulgaris]

I think the idea of bringing West, Cruse, and JTS on against a tiring scrum is delightful!

[ArleyWasp]

What has happened to Nizzam Carr, has he fallen out of favour?

[westwaleswasp]

One of the strongest benches in years.
Slightly worried, we were, after all, poor last week for much of it, but I think we will come good.

[Bloke in North Dorset]

What has happened to Nizzam Carr, has he fallen out of favour?

Probably being rested. He came from a hard season in SA to playing a lot of minutes when we had the a lot of injuries.

We don't announce our travelling reserves. Maybe Nemo is with them along with Ali Crossdale. With our reducing injury list, we finally have some SiD this season.
