7 Pennell – Made a couple of breaks from deep but was second best to Wasps’ Miller in the battle of the full-backs.

6 Biggs – Struggled to make an impact before he was replaced at half-time by Symons, who was Warriors’ stand-out player.

6 Heem – Started at centre as Warriors were torn to shreds in the first half. Looked much more comfortable on the wing.

5 Mills – Guilty of a couple of errors which led to tries but threw a long pass for Van Velze’s touchdown.

7 Vuna – Showed his finishing prowess to bump off Miller and Jackson for a well-taken first-half try.

5 Heathcote – Punished for several loose kicks as Warriors lost control of the contest in the first-half. Lacked accuracy from the tee.

7 Hougaard – Scored a well-taken try but had a pass picked off for one of Wade’s six touchdowns.

7 Ruskin – Continues to impress in the Premiership and could be an outside bet for a place on the England Saxons tour.

4 Bregvadze – An afternoon to forget for the Georgian hooker, who was off-piste with his line-out throws and missed a tackle for Wasps’ opening try from Halai.

7 Schonert – Gave plenty of effort in his return to the side before being replaced.

6 O'Callaghan – A below-par display for the former Ireland star. Replaced by Cavubati, who made a huge impact in attack.

6 Barry – Has been one of Warriors’ stand-out performers this season but had a subdued afternoon.

6 Dowson – Returned to the side and worked hard. The frenetic pace of the first half destabilised Worcester’s defensive structures.

7 Kirwan – Grabbed a try towards the end and was more involved as a ball carrier as the game wore on.

6 Van Velze – Much improved showing in the second period but the captain and Warriors looked all at sea in the opening 40 minutes.
