A general view of the Ricoh Arena, Coventry, home of Wasps

John Mitchell is too long in the tooth to be kidded by Munster’s problems in the build-up to Sunday’s Heineken Champions Cup opener in Coventry and the Wasps attack coach is preparing for “a humdinger”.

Favourites? Not a bit of it as far as the former All Blacks, South Africa, USA, and England coach is concerned — even allowing for the fact Munster have had the majority of their squad in Covid isolation following their abortive trip to South Africa.
