Bath could not handle the 21-year-old, whose speed and purpose around the forward fringes drove Wasps towards a first Premiership away win by any club this term.

Tom Varndell scored a brace of tries for the Londoners and David Lemi also crossed but Wasps had England prop Tim Payne sent off late in the action after he collected two yellow cards for scrum offences, and Bath number eight Ben Skirving's try - in the 20th minute of second-half injury time - meant the home side almost escaped.

The 'Bloodgate' scandal may officially be over for Harlequins but that did not stop Leicester from putting the boot in as fly-half Jeremy Staunton kicked the Tigers to a 15-9 victory.

Staunton struck five penalties to three from Nick Evans as the defending champions rebounded from their unexpected defeat to Sale Sharks on the opening day of the new season.

Harlequins' efforts at rebuilding their reputation on the field have now started with two defeats and, judging by the attendance at the Twickenham Stoop, they still have a long way to travel.

Saracens survived a dramatic late assault to celebrate their first visit to Wembley with a 19-16 victory over Northampton in front of a 44,832 crowd.

Trailing 16-3 after Noah Cato had raced in an interception try two minutes into the second half, Saints chipped away at the deficit through a Jon Clarke try and the boot of Shane Geraghty.

Prop Soane Tonga'uiha wriggled over with just under two minutes to go but the TMO ruled a knock-on amid a frantic finale that lit up an otherwise dull encounter.
