Three days after the defeat to Sale the London Wasps coach finally comes out to talk about the game which deposits them to the bottom of the league table:
Our resident pundit Garad Edwards caught up with Fase at the end of a very physical training session for the team;
“That second half was a very poor performance all round, errors everywhere. That simply wasn’t a side worth their reputation playing.”
“To be honest though we were a little unlucky not to have gone 14-10 up at the half, though that would have been against the run of play. The boys showed plenty of heart in the first half and covered the errors well - The second half quite simply saw the team collapse. Anytime we were inside either 22 we quite simply choked.”
“Sale played the better game, not difficult really, and deserved the win. It was a good clean match and we easily matched their physicality but it was basic ball skills that let us down.”
“Dawe’s team needed the points badly and we flattered them with our lacklustre performance. I can understand that Dawe has felt the pressure following their lockout by Stade; let him enjoy his moment, he obviously needs it. It’s just the start of the season and there’s plenty of rugby yet to be played.”
“Returning home for Stade in a couple of weeks will be a welcome break from the road. We’ll be working the boys hard to sharpen their handling skill after a few days off to reflect on their recent performance. The line-up could see a shake up!”
