Odogwu was pretty solid in that SF Lyon game, Sopoaga had his kicking boots but still a little temperamental elsewhere.

Spink pretty good for the Force against the Canes, Kibirige was another two tries.

Shame it was ruined by another unnecessary (IMO) red card. The tackled player was dropping and Mercer had no chance to adjust.

+1. So many similarities to the red that was subsequently downgraded in the last England game.

Interesting how Hansen thinks of him as world class, but EJ ignored him for years.

I'd love to see his MOTM to Cap ratio compared to some other second rows...

?I think it?s fair to say we were keen to make sure the social kitty didn?t fall into the hands of the official receivers,"

Nice one, Frosty. Clearly took to Wasps, even in the short time he was with us.

Good luck for the weekend.

 Whilst I am pleased for the players, this thread has the feel of an underpriced auction for the family silver.
I thought it would hurt a little less as time has elapsed, but it hasn't.

I agree, westwales. I too am pleased for the players but I doubt if it will ever stop hurting. I am still bitter..............what might have been😭😭😭😭

I don't mind so much Dan going to France, for example.

I absolutely hate Tom Willis going to Sarries, who will no doubt claim that he was very average but they were able to turn him into a great player.

The worst though is someone like Greg Fisilau going to Exeter. A really fine player already, the potential is enormous.

Fully agree with that.


Plus there are four ex Wasps on the Cheetahs bench tonight. What could have been.

Plus 1,  Backdoc.  Our cottage is littered with memorabilia  and the fridge door covered in photos.  It'll probably remain like that till I pop my clogs.
