?Wasps reclaimed second place in the Aviva Premiership after they shrugged off a number of injuries to sink struggling Worcester 26-12 at Sixways.Rob Miller, fly-half deputy for an injured Danny Cipriani, kicked 16 points, while centre Brendan Macken and scrum-half Dan Robson scored tries to keep Wasps tucked closely behind leaders Saracens going into a fortnights European action.Worcester, though, suffered a seventh defeat of the Premiership campaign, and remain in 11th spot as they build towards a crucial clash against bottom club Bristol at Ashton Gate on Boxing Day.Four Jamie Shillcock penalties proved insufficient to threaten Wasps, with the visitors superior game-management underpinning a comfortable victory, even if Worcester dominated second-half field position.Wasps suffered a late injury blow when Cipriani withdrew due to a calf strain, so Miller took the number 10 shirt and full-back Piers OConnor made his Premiership debut.In addition to their England internationals, Wasps were also without injured pair Jimmy Gopperth and Kyle Eastmond.Worcester boss Carl Hogg, meanwhile, made several changes from the side routed by Exeter last weekend, including a first Premiership start for flanker Sam Lewis, who packed down in the back-row alongside skipper Dewald Potgieter and number eight Alafoti Faosiliva, with Faosiliva having returned from Test duty with Samoa.A lengthy list of Wasps absentees also included wing Christian Wade, who scored a Premiership record-equalling six tries in last seasons corresponding fixture, but the visitors needed less than a minute to open their account.Shillcocks pass was intercepted on the halfway line by Macken, and he sprinted clear for a soft opener that Miller converted, before Shillcock and Miller exchanged penalties, making it 10-3 to Wasps after just six minutes.Mackens touchdown after 51 seconds was the Premierships quickest try this season, but Worcester were not fazed by such an early setback as another Shillcock penalty - awarded following a Wasps scrummaging infringement - kept the Warriors in touch.Shillcock completed his penalty hat-trick as Worcester enjoyed a sustained spell of pressure, while Wasps also required some last-ditch tackling to keep out Warriors wing Cooper Vuna when he spearheaded a thrilling counter-attack.Two further Miller penalties restored a seven-point advantage for Wasps, but Shillcock also continued to punish any indiscretion, and a long-range penalty cut the deficit before Miller cancelled it out to give the visitors a 19-12 half-time lead.Wasps began the second period with another quick-fire score, this time for Robson, who skipped his way through a weak Worcester defence inside Warriors 22 for a try that Miller converted, putting daylight between the teams for the first time.Worcester, though, continued to enjoy their share of territory, and they looked to free Vuna, comfortably their most potent attacking weapon, at every opportunity before switching possession wide following another of his trademark bursts, but referee Craig Maxwell-Keys rightly ruled out the try for a forward pass.It served as a reminder to Wasps that Worcester were still in the hunt, and even with a 14-point advantage, they knew the game was not safe entering the closing 15 minutes.But Worcester did not help themselves, lacking accuracy in attack and often looking like a team short on confidence as they snatched at opportunities when Wasps found their defence creaking.The visitors, in contrast, had no such problems, and even though it was far from a vintage performance, it proved a case of job done.

Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge has questioned whether Collingwood counterpart Nathan Buckley would let the Lin Jong AFL controversy happen again.The Bulldogs are fuming after news broke during the week that Collingwood had given Jong a mid-season tour of their facilities.Jong comes out of contract at the end of the season.Beveridge blasted the Magpies and Jongs management after Saturday nights narrow win over Richmond, saying the mid-season tour was a bad look.Buckley called Beveridge after the story broke, but the Magpies coach was also adamant he would do it again.Beveridge is not so sure that is the case.I know Nathan said if he had his time over, hed do it again, but I dont think he would, Beveridge said.Ultimately if our list manager Jason McCartney came to me - which he wouldnt - and said hey, lets meet a player at Whitten Oval, Id say hang on mate, were keen to talk to him, but its too risky to do it here.So maybe Nathan has been led up the wrong path as well there, because hes assertive enough and mature enough to make a better decision than that.Jong kicked the opening behind of Saturday nightts narrow win over Richmond.ddddddddddddHe had 13 possessions in a quiet game.Beveridge said people around Jong had let him down and added the players management had apologised to the club.While the Bulldogs coach said clubs obviously speak to rival players during the season, he took aim at the Magpies.The Pies have so much going for them, but they were anxious to get him in to see their facility, Beveridge said.We didnt have an issue with why and what was going on, even though normally we wouldnt know about it.It was just where and the timing of it - if youre going to do it, do it at the end of the year.Beveridge said it had been a tough week for Jong.It was a very different week (for him), the Bulldogs coach said.As you know, Jongy is a required player.We sort-of made light of it and we felt for him, actually, because theyd put him in a difficult situation.It shouldnt have gotten out - but it shouldnt have happened.If theyre going to talk to him, just talk to him somewhere else.
