Scarlets wing to go under the knife

The South African-born back suffered a shoulder injury in the 13th minute of last Saturday's defeat to Glasgow Warriors and will undergo an acromioclavicular joint reconstruction to his left shoulder.

The Canadian international has made 19 appearances for the Scarlets since joining the region after the Rugby World Cup and has scored eight tries.

Andrew Walker, Scarlets medical head, said; "DTH will undergo reconstructive surgery on Thursday.

"He will miss the remainder of the current season and we would expect to see him make a full recovery in time for the start of the 2016-17 campaign.”
