Injuries so far

[saulan]

Since we have started warm up matches and players have already begun dropping I thought we may as well have a thread dedicated to those who have fallen (mainly because I'm interested to know who is injured on the Australian and New Zealand side.)

So who I know of off the top of my head (please correct my time periods if I am wrong):

South Africa

Stormers:
De Allende - ankle ~April

Sharks:
Lambie - elbow ~ early April
Ruan Botha - hip ~ unknown
Giant Mtyanda - cheekbone fracture ~ unknown

Bulls:
Pollard - knee 9 months

New Zealand

Chiefs
Dom Bird - 8 weeks
Augustine Pulu - 10 weeks
Nepo Laulala - season

Argentina

Jaguares
Juan Martin Hernández - Knee ~tentatively back by season start

who else? Basically the only well known flyhalf who isn't injured is Jantjies from the Lions in SA.

Juan Martin Hernández has a soft knee injury, he'll miss warm ups but will be back for the start of SR.
