I think our senior backs should take 5 mins out of their time to look at some of the pre-planned moves in the backs

Lots of effort put in to support a break and give options.

The players seem very adept at not being tackled as they pass, making themselves available again in support. Very impressive.

I think Tigers won the main final

firstly thanks for the link, best performance I have seen in a wasps shirt this season.

Anyone tell me who the 8 was, looks a tidy player.

That would be James Tunney.

Was that Barbeary with the dink over to himself on our own 22? Not sure he’ll get away with trying that again at senior level but great confidence.

Having a look at these highlights again as well as the others that have been posted and as well as Barbeary, Mawdsley, Tunney, Pichardie and Ademuwagun look the real deal in the forwards, Nearchou looks impressive but as discussed perhaps a little small at LH heightwise so maybe will split shifts between there and hooker.

In the backs Atkinson I think has another year at school despite impressing for two years already at 10. Ma’asi looks to have some impressive feet in the centres, maybe still time to grow as looks a little lightweight but not sure if he too has another year at school.
Williams on the wing looks electric and Bacon at FB has been carving those intelligent lines for a few years now
