Great win for Worcester, 31-27, with a try BP. They wont go down.

Blimey. I saw the score at halftime but just assumed Leicester would come back to win. Huge result for Wuss.

And to think, Leicester were my top for the top at the end of preseason

Should be shocked that Wales haven't brought Josh Adams onboard yet but Gatland has a habit of not selecting on form.

Good point re. Adams. If he were English, I think we’d be discussing him as an EPS contender. I can see the regions wanting him back at some point and without the caps, he’d basically have to move to get any test recognition.

Hougaard, Mills and Heem coming back for Worcester has made a massive difference to them. I thought they looked very good going forward towards the end of last season and the last couple of games suggest they’ve re-discovered that cutting edge.

Wuss playing some classy stuff in the highlights.

Wuss scored some cracking tries. Singletons was a real beaut.

their back 3 with Pennell at FB is looking really sharp.

Well done Worcester - hoping to see you play (and who knows maybe even beat) Wasps in the Ricoh stadium in March.
