Rugby Champions Cup - Stade vs Wasps Play Off

[Peat]

I'm listening to the French commentary.

Nice try.

If Stade want this, they've got a weird way of showing it.

that was an absolute Gem.

Will Morris ever be able to move on from Edwards era Wasps?

 

[Aristodemus]

Great work from Wasps there!

 

[Big Ewis]

Wasps are just better today. Typical English win: simple, pragmatic, consistent, taking their chances...well done, gotta respect that.
SF are downright painful to watch with their forced/unforced handling/passing errors...they don't need a whole lot more to cross and break, but it's exactly that little extra that's lacking...

boy oh boy Slimani's on form in the scrum.

*Johnson goes down holding his arm*
Morris: "that might be his knee there. I hope it's not his knee."

 

[Peat]

There's nothing simple or pragmatic about a move that sees the ball pass through four forwards' hands in a space the size of your average shower stall!

 

[Tony Manx]

BT showed the first leg last week. Sky this week. Maybe this is following the TV rights agreement set up for next year?

Are you sure? Seem to remember Dewi bumbling on at High Wycombe and BT would never employ him?

 

[goodNumber10]

Dupey really is a horrible little man... Complete sleazeball.

 

[Big Ewis]

ouch, that rib injury looked bad for that Wasp...he was walking awful slowly off the pitch, yikes.....

Good game from the Wasps, congratulations. Totally deserved to win this one, easily the better team and they return home (to more rain ) with a healthy win in Paris. Well done.
Paris, just, very disappointing. They'll lose the important matches...against Racing to make the Top 14 playoffs, this one...I don't think it's choking, I think it's a lack of realism and pragmatic intelligence. They seemed disillusioned, and unready to face a very down-to-Earth Londonian side. Regular games are very, very different from elimination/qualifying ones...

Definitely. It is still saved in my Sky Box Planner.

Maybe you mistook Matt Dawson for Dewi. Both depressingly rubbish

Not a bad performance from Nigel overall... but there were numerous howlers from him today.

Delighted for Wasps though.... hopefully this will be followed by Launchbury re-signing.

Just found this reply.

I take it you are not happy Ewis!

I apologise for the Pests coming over and taking advantage of Stades inability to pass/catch.

There were an extraordinary amount of handling errors, some at really key moments and field positions. I really felt for Bonneval as I am a big fan of his, he did not have a good day!
