Swansea star Arwel Thomas admitted his team need to put their patchy form behind them to carry on with their winning start to the Heineken Cup.

Thomas was on song in the All Whites' stunning 54-28 defeat of London Wasps at St Helens but after three
Welsh-Scottish League defeats earlier this season the outside-half was not getting carried away.

``Before today, we hadn't really clicked, but we knew that we could do it and we rose to the occasion,'' he said.

The Swansea coach, New Zealander John Plumtree, added: ``That was certainly one of our best performances. We talked all week about playing for 80 minutes, and that is what happened.

``But this is a tough competition, and we are not going to believe our headlines. For us, it is a case of building on this display.''

Wasps suffered from the first half loss of the injured prop Darren Molloy and coach Nigel Melville admitted: "``I am very disappointed. We didn't hold on to any ball, and it is back to the drawing board.''

Swansea flyer Matt Robinson helped himself to four tries and Thomas scored 29 points including three second half dropped goals.

And Wasps, for whom this was their second half-century defeat in three matches, sandwiching a big win of their won over Northampton, were far from cheered by late consolations scores for Josh Lewsey and Joe Worsley.

``We just didn't play, and if that happens then you will get beaten," said Melville. "There are no excuses, we just turned over too much ball and gave away too much possession.

``At the moment, we are blowing hot and cold but all credit to Swansea, they played very well today.''

Wasps lost Molloy with a rib injury, but Melville is optimistic that he will be fit for next weekend's must-win trip to Italian club L'Aquila.
