(Reuters) - Wasps head coach Lee Blackett has warned his players not to get carried away by their 47-24 thumping of Bristol Bears on Saturday and to keep their emotions in check as they prepare for their first English Premiership rugby final in three years.

Wasps delivered an attacking master class to seal a spot in the Oct. 24 Premiership showpiece at Twickenham, where they will face Exeter Chiefs, who moved into their fifth straight final after defeating Bath 35-6 at Sandy Park.
