I'm sure that even if he's not playing, Beale can contribute off the field with his professionalism, leadership and mentoring.

After a few bongs, they can have some sleeping pills and paint the town red.

He probably already had a medical which means they are screwed. An amazing waste of money.
Except insurance will cover it, I would think, so have lost out on the player rather than money
I assume he's insured, but I don't know how the injury rules work for the cap, or rather players outside the cap.

His insurance isn't the issue I'd have thought (unless is a career ender), its twofold as to whether Wasps' covers this eventuality (you'd think so) and your point.

I was thinking about him being insured by Wasps to cover their salary spend. On the cap the entire spend allowed on injury cover used to be less than Beale's salary, so they may have a problem, but it might be players outside the cap works differently, if the rumours about Le Roux are true it would seem so

gotcha, and as conjectured above. It would be a tad unfair to be penalised when you can't use the player, though it seems not quite as dire as it first appeared. Though 4-6 months still likely means up to half the season missing, and who knows what player he will be after op and lay off.

On the plus side, he's unlikely to be picked for the AI's so soon after an injury. So, over the season, he may play as many games as Wasps anticipated.
