Joe Simpson injury update

Joe Simpson’s potential participation in the World Cup with England is not under threat after Wasps revealed he should only be out for six to eight weeks.
The scrum-half was forced to leave the pitch on Saturday against Leicester Tigers and scans confirmed a grade two medial collateral ligament strain to his knee.
No operation is required and medical staff are confident he will make a full recovery in time to participate in pre-season and in any World Cup preparations should he be selected.
