I know we’ve got to take into account they are one man down but I’m happy with first half . Yes we’ve made mistakes but I can forgive most of them because of way they are trying to open up game.

Then again could just be the single malt talking

Just maintain composure and don’t leave ourselves unnecessarily exposed.

We just need good decision making.

Step up....Will Porter and Charlie Atkinson.
Show us what you two youngsters can do.

Did Jimmy miss the conversion of the try?

So gutted about their breakaway try before half-time. We were so on top up until that point. Surely Lima should’ve been covering at the back for that manoeuvre?
But overall, it’s been a fantastic team effort by wasps.

We just need to play sensible, possession, tactical and territory rugby in the second half and feed off their mistakes.

I’m so, so impressed by the way our scrum stands firm every scrum.
Brilliant boys.
Brilliant.
That in itself applies huge pressure to our opposition.

Nah, we were attacking Sops would have been somewhere in the attacking line.

I'll always forgive our lads if they get turned over attempting something positive so not too unhappy with the try we conceded.

More of the same in the 2nd half would see us home with a try bonus point so I'm very content with the game so far.

Gopps needs to pass the kicking tee to Lima ASAP though!

I’m hoping Porter, Odugwu and Barberry can push on and put this one to bed.

Jimmy has got his boots on the wrong feet. I hope it doesn’t affect the result.

Rather than moving forward into the tackle.
We have to learn to turn backwards.

He needs to catch it without it bouncing to call a mark.
