Only four recent regulars unavailable for Saturday’s game‘We’ll be in a good position,’ says coach after Covid outbreakThe Wasps head coach, Lee Blackett, has urged his side to make the most of their Premiership final reprieve against Exeter on Saturday after lifting the lid on the emotional strain of the Covid-19 outbreak that threatened their place at Twickenham.
Blackett revealed that while he is without 11 players for the final because of either positive tests or close contacts having to isolate, only four of those have been involved in the past four matches. It is believed that while Malakai Fekitoa will miss out with a groin injury, the XV selected to face Exeter will be largely similar to the one that started the semi-final win against Bristol.
