So, after all that, we, and Chiefs & Bears, are no further forwards. From the Sale debacle we can deduce that the PRL will not interfere this time. They will leave it to Wasps to act upon advice given by PHE, and we must assume PHE are saying wait for Tuesday's test results, due on Wednesday. Only if sufficient of the 'bubbles' that can constitute the match day 23 are burst will PHE advise each bubble to self-isolate. If that happens, and we can't make a match day 23, from wherever in our squad, no matter how young etc, THEN Wasps must cede the match. Nothing in the original return to play Covid 'rules' say what happens next. For me, there should be no match, and Chiefs should win. Bears did not earn the right to play, as they lost to us fair and square.
If, on the other hand, PHE say it is safe to play our proposed 23, then the game is on.
