I don't think the Renegades group will object if we don't spam it. The Wasps group certainly will, but as they stole my header image and refused to take it away or even apologise I don't really care.

You're right about Thompson, for some reason I stil had him as injured in my head even though I watched him play like a beast last weekend.
I know you always prefer Robson to Simmo, but I think Simmo is one of the few players that has that spikey edge a lot of our guys seem to be lacking. I'd rather start him and bring Robson on when people are tiring.
As to the Cips/Gopps thing again I'd probably go for the more direct, harder hitting route first up. Cips gets the brunt end of a lot of hard hits and it sometimes seems to faze him. Gopps will just shrug that off. And then when the opposition is tiring and bruised from bouncing off ourt man of steel we can bring the golden boy on.
That being said I think that if we start with Launch and Symons we are playing two similar players. They both perform best in the breakdown and whilst Launch is clearly the technician and Symons the brute, I think we need a lineout specialist, and unless Gasks is miraculously better then we need Myall to start.

I don't think they'd even notice.

Who do you think Dai will pick?
I'm gonna go with:
9) Simmo
10) Gopps
11) Bassett
12) Beale
13) Daly
14) Wade
15) LeRoux
1) Mullan
2) Taylor
3) Swainston
4) Launchbury
5) Myall
6) Young
7) Hasks
Hughes
16) Bristow
17) Cruse
18) JCW
19) Symons
20) Reider
21) Robson
22) Cips
23) Leiua
Pretty much the same as last week, but Hughes to start in place of Smashley, and I'm really hoping we'll see JCW back on the bench.
What do you think?

Welcome!
I suspect we'll need to actively push it for a while to stand a chance of succeeding. But here's hoping...

Wasps Rugby Discussion / FORUM RULES - PLEASE READ
« on: April 13, 2017, 05:42:26 PM »
This place exists to provide a space for discussion about Wasps Rugby, and related subjects. If what you are posting is clearly off topic please title it as such.
Please be nice, I hate harshly moderated forums, but personal attacks won't be tolerated.
Please try to avoid politics, and religion as subjects for discussion, it just gets heated.
Try to keep it all safe for work, people browse from all kinds of places, and we do not exclude under 18s, because they can love rugby too.
Have fun
VV
