...against Cardiff Blues

John Yapp is set to run out for Wasps for the first time since November tomorrow – and the prop is hellbent on continuing the club’s assault on three fronts.

Wasps have lost just one of their last eight matches in all competitions, leaving them fourth in the Aviva Premiership Rugby table and through to the European Rugby Champions Cup quarter-finals, though Yapp missed that entire run due to injury.

This weekend their attentions turn to the LV= Cup, a competition Wasps have won three times before, with Yapp’s former employers Cardiff Blues the visitors to the Ricoh Arena on Sunday.

And now the 31-year-old has recovered from his calf problem he is determined to play a belated part in Wasps’ season.

“It will be nice to get back out on the pitch, there’s no substitute for it,” said Yapp. “It’s been a little bit frustrating to be on the sidelines, though good to see how well the team has been performing.

“There might be a few changes to the team this week, because we’ve got a bigger squad this season than in past years, but that gives us an opportunity to field a strong side.
