Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: A worrying game, but hinking back a few years

Has Searle had a start alongside WLR yet? All of our fly halfs look better when WLR is there making plays. Let Searle bed in and give him a chance to perform in an otherwise first choice team and we'll see how he compares.
It's not like Cipriani was infallible last season!

I viewed the post as a polite request not to talk about it, as a favour almost rather than a forced censorship. There's an appeal in the works and the club don't want random posts, stories and theories to affect the appeal.
It's not a surprise that the CCFC fans, presumably with a large contingent of "Free Tommy Robinson" fans, don't see the sense in keeping quiet about court cases.

I'm finding it difficult to read without putting on a sarcastic voice!
I suppose he's no worries burning bridges with Gatland and Edwards now.

Clicked on the Rugby Gold link and their most recent activity is a tweet at Lima about the royal wedding "controversy" and a retweet of the RIL Ricoh sale post!
So, maybe alternative but it's the same old crap!

Any news on Launch's injury? Was it picked up in England training?
It's weird not having the Drunken Wasps forum for wild conspiracy theories and Eddie bashing!

Serge Betsen has slagged off England's backrow selection for the France game, especially given the hammering by Scotland:

The article includes this shocking statement:
Something needs to change. Can the players adapt or should the selection have changed?

Over the first three rounds of the 2018 tournament, England have the worst success rate of all the Six Nations sides at the ruck.

I wonder how those numbers compare to the scots backrow from that game. In isolation the numbers seem okay but we were destroyed at the breakdown.

With the league and play off system as it is, it's not about having the best squad, it's about having the best 23 players for the semi-final and final. The squad just has to be strong enough to get you in the top 4. Come May it doesn't matter if your 4th choice lock is better than theirs, or how good your 3rd choice tight head is.
There's a balancing act of course. But when a class player comes on the market you should be interested. But injuries complicate matters too!
