Slade set to miss Six Nations

Sunday 6 Dec 2015

"Henry has an injury to the lower part of his right leg and it is envisaged he will be operated on sometime today [Sunday]," revealed Exeter coach Rob Baxter.

"At the moment we have set no time scale on how long he will be sidelined for. A more detailed assessment will be made following the operation."

Slade, 22, came off in distress with 15 minutes left of his side's 41-27 victory at Wasps and will now likely be ruled out for new England coach Eddie Jones and their upcoming Six Nations campaign.
