So intelligent and patient, communicating with Fifita and changing attack.

[WonkyWasp]

Please! This is NOT April the firsdt!  What, how many and who? ? ?

[Heathen]

That was suicide. Kick has to find touch.

[NellyWellyWaspy]

Atkinson f'd that up.

[NellyWellyWaspy]

FFS Umaga is a TOTAL idiot. Misses touch, then takes it in to contact with no backup.

Yes, neither Umaga or Atkinson are the 10s we need.

[hopwood]

As a team we go too far into contact.
It means we can’t protect the ball carrier.

For the sake of a few yards….we need to treat the ball like a bar of gold!

[Heathen]

We are getting careless now.

[wasps]

Please! This is NOT April the firsdt!  What, how many and who? ? ?

Looks like we've scored 2 converted tries


1st by Jacob
2nd by Oghre


Both converted by Jimmy

[NellyWellyWaspy]

Coupled with Atkinson falling off the tackle. Nuff said.

[Heathen]

14 all, 20 mins to play.

[WonkyWasp]

Thanks Heathen and Wasps.

FFS Umaga is a TOTAL idiot. Misses touch, then takes it in to contact with no backup.

Yes, neither Umaga or Atkinson are the 10s we need.

…yet.

Players can learn and develop.
And obviously you have to check your cognitive bias.
If you don’t think they’re good enough, you’re constantly looking for evidence to back up that belief.

But yes…some work-ons.

But the same can be said for the whole team.
Gloucester are a good side. 

[Heathen]

Rees Zamuut in bin. Atkinson try. 19-14 Wasps.

[BrackenandMacken]

Think both Jacob and Charlie are going to be fantastic players, playing them both at 10 and 15 is asking alot and your are naturally going to get a mix of good and bad if you do so.

Lovely from Dan, how we are in this given the penalty stats is quite a miracle.

[califauna]

I feel like if Wasps got their shit together re. the basics they would be a really good team. Mental fragility, discipline and lack of effort costing them in this match. 3 points resulting from Shields giving out mid-air hugs in the lineout earlier, and that last try because Stooke was the only player making any concerted attempt to get back and support the player taking the high ball.
