Doesn't sound anything too serious.

[backdoc]

"CoventryLive understands he did not suffer a recurrence of that issue but he was replaced due to a minor respiratory issue as a precaution."

What they mean is he is still out of breath after his sprint down the middle of the pitch. I have never seen him move so fast.

[Rossm]

You fancy tackling that? Actually Will Rowlands looks pretty 'craggy' and he doesn't even have the ball

[Neils]

On telly there was a close up and he was holding his ribs and wincing. He seemed to have trouble taking a deep breathe (the doc looked as if he was asking him to do so).

Was very surprised at his speed.

[Shugs]

Yes that burst down the middle was one of the highlights for me - he really shifted. Can't remember who bought him down but I'd have been tempted to just leave him for another ten yards and I think he'd have just stopped himself!

Head to here:https://www.premiershiprugby.com/watch/full-match-wasps-v-bristol-bears-gallagher-premiership-round-20 and 1:14:05 for above mentioned break from Brookes. The interchange of hands following was also pretty slick, although as the commentator noted, perhaps over-complicated things.
