Bath already look mid table best. I guess the new coaches need to assess the squad and let some contracts expire. But losing Louew and Webber and other injuries to Donald, Heathcote, Caldwell etc surprised not to see some new blood. This team however fit or well coached will not be up there with Saracens, Saints, Quins etc.

Wasps should have beaten Quins, but I'll take the bonus points. It was a shame Masi went off, had he stayed on I think Wasps would have won. It gave me a lot of encouragement for the season ahead. There are definitely a lot of tries in this team, and a bit more concentration in defence will see them fighting for the Heineken Cup places, rather than relegation

all wins predicted right which is impressive for first game of the season... but being pedantic couldn't they line up the results with the club crests...

#5 Oh dear .. Many a slip twixt cup and lip, and all that.
I was hoping the same as I watched the highlights last night. No way could they throw away a lead like that... could they ?
After last season, I was looking forward to the unfamiliar glow from a Wasps win.
Ho hum, at least we picked up bonus points.

Not bad JG. The Exeter game apart pretty good predictions. Good to have it back. As for the summer sport,its OK for people who don't like the cold I suppose but its appeal has never really grown largely because it remains an immitation of the proper game. Bit like five a side football.
