Wasps book play-off berth with bonus-point win over lame Leeds

10 May 2008
Yesterday's bonus-point win over relegated Leeds lifted Wasps to a second-place finish in the table and set up a semi-final against Bath next Sunday.
If Wasps had lost and results elsewhere had gone against them, this would have been Dallaglio's last match before retirement.
And the former England captain may have been slightly concerned when a sluggish start left his side trailing 9-0 and then 16-7.
But Dallaglio and his old Test colleague Simon Shaw, who became the first man to play 200 Premiership games, lifted Wasps out of their rut.
The visitors responded to Tom Biggs's interception try by scoring 17 unanswered points in eight minutes, with Voyce's fancy footwork giving him his second try of the afternoon and Fraser Waters touching down on the stroke of half-time.
Wasps had the bonus point in the bag nine minutes into the second half when Mark McMillan set up Raphael Ibanez. Further tries followed from Joe Ward and Voyce.
Jonny Hepworth and Hendre Fourie went over for Leeds.
Dallaglio said: 'We've potentially got two massive games coming up but we're confident because we've got some great players in our team.'
