Don't think so, my guess is a small injury. Can't see Cockerill going along with a rest in a big game like this, especially when Berghan hasn't exactly been overworked.

Nel has had loads of match time this season.

Nel has had loads of match time this season.
And still looks like he could do with more.

he has looked poor of that's what you mean. I know he is supposed to need to play a lot to keep form, but I'm afraid I'm not in favour of keeping picking him in the hope he comes good, or using Edinburgh as a warm up zone for Scotland when Edinburgh have a big challenge ahead.
Perhaps he would find some form if told to play some premiership rugby #outofcomfortzzone
