Wasps win 31-29. Sounds as if it was a good game.
Let me tell you something cucumber

So the A team can play out the last few minutes for the win....

Saying that, they made it very difficult for themselves by the sounds of it, conceding numerous penalties, then a yellow card and then a converted try in the last few mins. They were under lots of pressure but managed to grind out the win great work against a Northampton side who have a lot of momentum at the moment and confidence within their academy set up, always good to pick up away wins

I like the last paragraph of Bridge's coverage. Structure the competition correctly and get decent teams out and you get a useful, valuable and entertaining "product".

Highlights are up. Really love the 2 interactions we see from Umaga.

I was thinking that. Also, Sirker has added the 'step' to his skillset. Before, he relied on his gas, now he can dance around as well. Shows much promise. Sadly the reel is mainly about attack, so we don't get to see others. Hopefully we will have the same side on Saturday, in which case I can see for myself live.

I think "the step" was always part of Sirker's repertoire as we all saw at the Prem 7s: https://youtu.be/72eSAuk-DnU

Where should I be looking for the highlights? Tried googling it and got nowhere.

Cheers.
