Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: Team for Quins?

It'll be nice to see some of them back in the team, but I hope the week off doesn't affect us the way it's seemed to a few times recenty.

I think we miss Symons out of the starting XV at our peril. I probably wouldn't have selected him even a couple of weeks ago, but he is solid in every way and has yet to out a foot wrong.

Can you get me a screen capture of the thread lists when you know there are new messages? I'll see if anyone else has had the issue on a different forum.

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: A bit lost for words - International selections
« on: April 21, 2017, 11:58:05 AM »Agree with that Raggs. We are being told on 'the other forum' by Saints and Sarries supporters that our players are just not as good as we think,
That may well be the case, but our league position would seem to suggest otherwise.

I regularly watch Hasks' videos, but for some reason haven't subscribed yet...

Do any of you post anything on YouTube? Or if not do you sunscribe to non-rugby channels?
I maintain a Martial Arts channel that is growing in popularity and follow a few similar ones.

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: What's your favourite pod cast?
« on: April 21, 2017, 09:59:23 AM »Thanks, notso. All I have is a desktop PC that is over 7 years old and runs Windows 7. No tablet, no smartphone, no laptop. Can I access them with my internet connection and, if so, how?
Technically all a podcast is is an audio file you can download to any machine. So as long as your PC can access the internet (clearly it can or you wouldn't be here) and has speakers you should be perfectly able to listen to them. All you need is the link to follow.

I am much the same as you. I don't really get it. I am sure he has a plan, and whilst I understand he is a clearly a great coach - he did wonders with what was essentially Lancaster's failing squad - I have a lot less respect for his selections.
I am deeply concerned that this is meerly a way of tying potentially good players to England without actually giving them the opportunity to play for their countries at any real level. In much the same way coaches have for years. Give them one or two early caps, and then ditch them for someone more suitable.

I am frankly astonished by this, and more than a little disappointed. There is no doubt Eddie is a great coach, he worked wonders with what was essentially Lancaster's squad. But I'm really starting to question his judgement now.

He's clearly a massive bloke with lots of muscle. It's just for the first time I can remember his shirt is hanging from his chest, not his belly.
Training with DB would explain it.

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Argentina 2017
« on: April 19, 2017, 03:15:32 PM »
So now we know which Wasp will be going to New Zeakand with the Lions, who do you think we might see in White this year on the Argentina tour?
I's expect Mullan, Taylor, Launch, Hasks, and Hughes to stay in the squad, and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see either/or Robson and Simmo there too. Possibly JCW too. Depending on fitness Jones and Miller might be in with a shout. And as to Wade, I have given up expecting him to get the recognition he deserves. The man is electric, terrifies defenders, and scores tries from absolutely nothing for fun. How he doesnt already have 20 odd caps is beyond me.
What do you think?

12 players from the country that finished 5th in the 6 Nations? It feels very much like Gatland is trying to recreate his success when he first took over Wales.

And Launch doesn't make it in despite being clearly the best lock in the 6N.
