Big blow, he was shaping up to be one of the stars of the tour. Cheika should do an Alex Ferguson and meet him at the airport when he arrives home :wink:

Five games Left,Three full tests and the Emerging Springboks,which is probably a test game anyway,hard grounds,and two games back at altitude,will the British and Irish Lions now have adequate cover in the back row,especially as M Williams has a bit of a dodgey shoulder?,hopefully they will all be injury free,but do we realy want to see a second row cover in the back row? maybe Shane will be able to step in as an emergency seven if the need arises :shock:
