That's a massive result and will send out a message, we ain't dead yet, pity I had to pull out of the trip down south for this one.

Monumental performance from the team. Not seen cockers that emotional before. That is heart on your sleeve stuff! Amazing.
All the players were superb...Morris needs game time at 15 but otherwise superb.

Yes!!!!!!

If you could get them all up there to do the same we'd appreciate it.

Absolutely brill performance, reduced to 14 and going on to win was brilliant, fantastic defence and some great attacking moves. Real Tigers that was. :smt038 :smt038

Who was MOM, all 14?

Yep I didn't think we had much chance vs Wasps but we played the better rugby in the first half and what a superb defensive performance in the second half. I didn't think we were capable of a performance like that, I'm so happy to be proved wrong.

What's new pussycat - Wasps know now. Fantastic display apart from Bai who was a disgrace.

I think that is the first match this season when Wasps have failed to score a try. An tremendous defensive effort.

Okay just two things at the moment:

1) that why we signed Loamanu
2) I would be happy with Morris at 15

Will post more but hands shaking so much.

Where did that come from?

Happy to 'do a Paddy' and eat my hat. I didn't see us winning that. And with 14 for a half. Well done lads!

Paddy side stepped the hat eating, however if you still want to go ahead :smt002

One observation..... it is clearly not Tigers right to be the only team that can't beat 14 men :smt005

Best performance of the season. Great attack in 1st half, great defence in 2nd. Crazy rush of blood from Bai who before that was having his best game for Tigers.

Who will play 12 next week? Perhaps Loamanu who looked sharp when he came on. Otherwise could be Bell, presumably Allen and Roberts are still injured...?

Bring on Saints!!
