Tom Varndell double helps Wasps overcome London Irish

Wasps earned their first victory of the season at the expense of London Irish, who remain winless in 2012-13.

The visitors took a lead of two points into the half-time interval, thanks to a try from Marland Yarde and two penalties from Steven Shingler.

Shingler added another penalty, but Stephen Jones added four penalties and a conversion to a Tom Varndell try.

Converted scores from Joe Simpson, Sakaria Taulafo and Varndell, plus another Jones penalty, sealed the win.

And it provided the best possible start for the club's new owners, who announced on Friday that they had completed their takeover.

Varndell crossed after good work from Hugo Southwell to put the home side in front at Adams Park, but it was only in the final quarter that Wasps ran away with the game.

Simpson collected the ball from a ruck to dart over the line, replacement Taulafo drove over in the corner and Varndell added his second after a lung-busting run from Simpson to complete a bonus-point win.
