WASPS added injury to insult as they saw three more players go down during the home defeat to Worcester yesterday.
Actually, Richard Haughton strained a groin during the warm-up but neither Nick Robinson or Christian Wade made it through to half time.
Director of rugby Dai Young said: “Richard Haughton pulled up a minute and a half before the game with a tight groin, which is frustrating for everybody.
“Nicky Robinson has a calf injury, but it's soft tissue, he hasn't actually torn it. He was struggling after about ten minutes.”
To cap it all, Wade had to be helped from the pitch after sustaining a groin injury when two Worcester players collapsed on top of him.
Young said: “Christian Wade's injury looks a little bit more serious. We don't know what it is yet, but hopefully it won't be too bad.”
It takes Wasps' injury list to 12.
Young said: “We've got a good team in the stands at the minute. It's frustrating. We've got a lot of good players to come back.”
