Robson blasts lottery over red card decisions

The England scrum-half claimed Ben Morris was unlucky to be dismissed for what referee Ian Tempest decided was a dangerous hit to the head on centre Ollie Lawrence 20 minutes from the end.

Wasps fell behind but hooker Tommy Taylor’s try five minutes later sealed the victory which puts them eighth in the Premiership table with three games remaining.

Robson said: “I’ve seen yellow and red cards given for virtually nothing. The frustrating thing for all the players is getting consistency.

“Charlie Ewels’ one in Bath’s game with Sale was a very similar one and he gets a yellow but Ben gets a red for his. We are all watching it on the big screen and going: ‘pick a number out the hat!’

“All we want is consistency and if we get that it will be fine and there will be no problem.
