Bath - Wasps 17-12
Bath tries made by: Mears, Donald and Abendanon. Conversion by Barkley
Wasps scored all their points on penalties by Robinson.
Last game will decide if Falcons or Wasps will relegate

but Newcastle will have to win with a bonus point, as Wasps have a four point lead and 52 point advantage over points difference, so if Newcastle were to win with three tries they would still go down

Newcastle will have to win with a BP and deny Wasps a BP to survive
 
...Or a somehow pull off a 24 point win margin. Odds are against the Falcons. Fancy them to win it, but couldn't see them actually managing to do what they need to.
 
Falcons will need four tries or more against Wasps. So far they haven't managed to win a single TBP in 21 matches. Odds are against them.
 
Aye - If Falcons needed the pts difference, not the TBP I could see them edging it with penalties and DGs, however I can't see them scoring a load of tries.
 
Things would have been more exciting if Wasps hadn't received a LBP against Bath last night...

A win by 24 points would do them as well, as I said. Huge ask for Jimmy Gopperth, that's at least 8 drop goals...
 
Aha, all is not lost then.
You never know, depends how disciplined Wasps are on the day (though same could be said for Falcons)
 
If Falcons decide to go for tries and run it at Wasps they could find themselves with a chance of staying up. To say the Wasps defence was woeful would be flattering, even players like Barkley were able to break tackles and make significant ground. Wasps are in alot of trouble.

Sam Vesty celebrating before touching the ball down gets tackled unsuspectingly from behind by Tom Varndell

Vesty may have kpet Wasps up by allowing them a bonus point
 
Yeah, Varndell might have saved the Wasps there.
Depends on the buyer still.
 
Good try from Stephen Donald showing us why he should be at Bath after a bit of a shakey start. I can see him performing better next season. Also I thought Mearsey's try was great, really deserves it after having some great performances. Abendanon is a great player to have at Bath, I think he has a lot of potential to be one of the premierships best wingers. A very promising second half with the flare Bath are capable of showing.
