Cipriani calf strain too. But their 2nd string team was good today...

Marty Moore went off with an injury today. Not sure how bad but they are having a Connacht type of injury crisis.

good news is that they have a lot of injuries, I think they are down to their 4th choice hooker as their 2nd choice has been filling in in the backrow

finlay, bucks and tom will be relishing a crack at their scrum.

Jaysus that Wasps squad is something else. One of the best Connacht have ever faced?

Wasps should have a handy run out against Worcester - albeit game is in Sixways.

on BT1 Sunday 3pm - worth a look

Well folks, I know there's Treviso first, but the main point is to avoid injury and re-introduce properly Healy, McCartney, Buckley, Cooney and Nepia-Fox into the global scheme.

I can't wait to see Bealham vs Moore, might well be the head-to-head for n°18 RWC 2019

I can't wait to see Cannon against his ex-club (probably on the bench with Dillane back)

I can't wait to see Aki having fun, facing a midfield without Daly

I can't wait to see Wade vs Adeolokun sprinting (even if I'd prefer Wade to be sidelined)

I can't wait to see Boshoff vs Gopperth

I can't wait to see greatest European Rugby :D
