Bobby Bridge reveals Brad had Covid.

I wonder if he has fully recovered in order to take part.

Some time ago now. As I understand it you give plasma after you are clear. However nobody knows what "long covid" can do to a body but hopefuly ultra fit sportsmen can blitz that. Barring upset he will be in the 23 I imagine.
Let me tell you something cucumber

Isn't that all of their best players?

From my reckoning, they’ve still got Vui and Alapati....

Our selection challenges now look quite minor though dont they.

Be good to settle the new season nerves with a performance. Last season almost feels too miraculous! Need to make sure we can still do it a few weeks on.

It's the majority of their starting XV from the semi at the Ricoh last month, plus Sinckler who started that one on the bench

Unsurprisingly ,due to this news odds checker has wasps 1/3 Bristol 11/2 draw 33/1

Whilst there I noticed that favourites for top four finish are Exeter,Sale,Bristol and Bath.
However wasps are  joint 3rd favourite to win Premiership.

Wasps are 1/8 on bet365

And they are 100/1 to finish top of the Premiership

Considering how close we were last season, this is a touch reckless of the bookies IMO.

I've missed something because best odds I could find were 4/1. I was going to have a bet at 100/1.

Its the difference between winning the play off compared to topping the league
