So Borthwick has confirmed Ford did have a knock, but in a way that does keep Wasps guessing as to whether he'll play this weekend

There had to be a reason for him not to feature in the last two games. Hopefully he will be good for the weekend to maximise our game management.

He might be keeping Tigers guessing with a late fitness test. He could have failed a late fitness test before last weekend we don't know and that is why Borthwick might not have mentioned anything pre Bristol game.

Perhaps he can borrow Pat Lam's magic sponge that changes a player from injured to uninjured in a flash

Pat Lam's panicked nod does have a Lazarus type effect I've heard.

packing down for one push deep into added time was never going to be a problem for a player brought off to prevent him picking up an injury. That is why what Lam claimed was so ridiculous and clearly an attempt to cheat by going to unopposed scrums. The man was telling porkies, simples.

Wasps v Leicester Tigers (Ricoh Arena) - coverage starts at 2.30pm, kick-off at 3pm live on BT Sport 1HD

Referee: Luke Pearce Assistant Referees: Mike Hudson & Jonathan Healy TMO: Tom Foley Citing Officer: Danae Zamboulis

[OakhamTiger32]

Great news it’s Pearce

[Offside]

Foley in the truck though

[Scott1]

Sweepstake on how many times Pearce says use it without giving out any punishment. I'm gonna say 127

[wellstiger]

Pearce the man with the whistle - Foley refereeing from a truck.- Call me Mr Sarcastic but I can see Tigers with 2 yellow and possible a red card.

Pearce is the 2nd best referee in the league and one of the best around. Foley.. not in the same category but it could be worse.. CMK, Carley, Dickson, Tempest....

The lads will be up for this one, even more so after the farce last week so let's just hope for a fair level playing field and a good 80 minute performance.. failing that I'll take Irish losing and us scraping through

Hmmm Foley in the truck


On another matter totally unconnected of course - anyone know where I can buy insulated bolt cutters capable of severing 8 ply TV feed type cable?
Asking for a friend.

Just swap the feed to a different game, the decisions will be about as valid.

Pearce has been pretty bad recently.

Explosive cutting cord?

Why not just jam the signal? Less destructive and more fun.

Would be even more fun to hack the line and add our own advice.
