WASPS head coach Shaun Edwards admits Joe Simpson’s all-action style is a concern.

The scrum hasn’t shirked a tackle despite just coming back from a dislocated shoulder and somehow always manages to get under the feet of the biggest member of the opposition team.

Edwards said: “The Joe Simpson injury hit us hard, very, very hard. He’s the centre of our team. He really does make us tick. But I’m trying to work out ways to stop him tackling so much to look after him. He’s one of the bravest lads you’ll ever come across. He really puts his body on the line.”
