Saracens v's Wasps
First topic message reminder :
As a Wasps fan, I'm so much more optimistic about our season this year than last year.
Some of our players are fantastically exciting to watch, and we've played some pretty expansive rugby this year.
Unfortunately, we've had a few serious injuries / retirements already this season, so I'm hoping that we won't have a repeat of last years problems.
My optimism leading up to each game is usually tempered by my concerns with our, at times woeful defence, and our scrummaging which although better than recent years still isn't up where it needs to be.
So, with this weekends game against Saracen's I'm a little concerned that they may take us apart up front, and run through our midfield at will.
I'm also concerned that their really strong defence will keep our attack quiet.
So, with my optimism sadly lacking this weekend, I ask you.... Do Wasps stand a chance this weekend?

Re: Saracens v's Wasps
Billy V needs to improve his ball in hand skills...
He still spills it a lot more than you would expect for a top quality 8.
By the time he sorts that out, I would expect his fitness would have improved a bit more too.
Then I don't see any reason why he couldn't be pushing for an England spot... we're not exactly blessed with 8's.
Unfortunately for Wasps, I'm worried that we may struggle to hold onto him.

Re: Saracens v's Wasps
Armitage has more fitness issues than Vunipola.
Billy is just turned 20 and developing. Already there is a marked improvement in his fitness - now he just needs to stop losing the ball when he runs into contact.
