Glad Wasps are still able to put a more or less intact squad for the final.

If Wasps play their game flawlessly - if they are adventurous and everything sticks - they win. Otherwise, Exeter capitalise on every tiny mistake and win.

As you’d expect though, the Baa Baas referee wasn’t a Premiership referee.

In light of events surrounding England Vs Barbarians , simply appreciate the fact that we are getting a Premiership Final.

It might burst some bubbles of entitlement if they do; those who believe Exeter should have been given Sarries’ titles, which was a ridiculous suggestion.

It seems to me that Exeter have stolen our clothes from the Johnson era. Play a very similar game, deadly catch and drive etc., albeit without a jackal.

I can't dislike them for that.
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….

As a neutral, I'm very much looking forward to the game with teams of contrasting styles.
Exeter will surely play to their strengths, and if they win, fair enough. However, if Wasps' backs can find one or two gaps in the Chiefs' defence we could be in for an entertaining game.
