Looking good for Diggers so far, 7 -0 up and Pests looking very ordinary

Easy try there for Wasps, defence all over the shop

Quality pass, line and finish for Fekitallup for the Pests score!

And they go over for another... Leicester looking soft and porous... hopefully we’ll get a see-saw match.

Simple push over there, Wasps taking control now

If Healy's saying a Tigers player should be binned, then he really deserved it.

Why the hell are Wasps trying to play wide, they don't need to, they are so superior in the forwards, just stuff it up the jumper, could have had another 2 tries

It’s just a shame that Oghre is a little too good-looking, he’d have an unbelievably good name for a front-rower.

Barbeary seems to be showing up well, you can almost hear the junior rugby journalists fapping away at home.

Too tempting to try out some fun stuff I guess. Hopefully they'll be told to stick it up the jumper again until they've got 4, then try the pretty stuff again.
Give a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Yeah, lovely show and go - good turn of speed, too. He’s been getting on the scoresheet quite a bit, hasn’t he?

Enter: Ben Youngs!

A try for each of his two appearances so far. Not a bad return.

Being able to play both him and Oghre at hooker or back row is great for squad depth

I love it when our scrum strike moves come off. That was sexy.

A shame that didn't come to anything, but it looks like we've properly found our rhythm now.

It’s strange how satisfying it is to see Tigers getting reamed.

Good game from Umaga - I’m yet to see the quality of an international in him but I can see why he should get a call-up at some point.

The disappointing game against Sale indicated he's got some work to do on game management, especially in adverse weather. He's got oodles of talent going forward, I see him as George Ford's potential successor.

Nice to see that for Spink, he copped a nasty knee injury around the same time as Vellacott, so spent a loooong time on the sidelines having just been elevated to the senior squad.

That really was a beautifully worked try, excellent break, slipped passes, inside scissors... training ground porn.

Wow... a potential 60point bit of abuse for Tiggers... just imagine how furrowed Martin Johnson’s brow must be.

Got to admire Wasps - proper rugby club. They really know how to develop players.

My bad, or! Alternatively, you’re welcome tiggers fans.

Strange times, strange matches, strange scorelines. Feel sorry for Ellis Genge, happier times will lie in store for him.

We all know that Youngs will get picked as first choice by Jones yet again.

The real tragedy isn't that such a pitifully average player gets picked, that can happen occasionally but one-fucking-hundred times?! It's actually shameful.

No, he deserves to be fired from a clown canon into the sun. He literally does nothing well, nothing at all. If he had just one thing he did well then I might get it but there's nothing. He the Atacama desert of rugby players.

The only thing I recall Youngs doing is making a hash of picking the ball up from a ruck and then throwing himself into the ruck out of shame. It genuinely looked like he was trying to hide amongst the bodies.

He got himself yellow carded for deliberately knocking the ball on right in front of a touch judge not long after coming on. Like he'd had a little run around and decided it was time for a rest...

It pleases me to see that Minozzi is starting regularly for Wasps, normally when an Italian player moves abroad they fall off the face of the earth
