Troubling sign for Wallabies

Sunday 21 Apr 2019

INJURY UPDATE: The long-awaited return of Australia flank David Pocock has once again been delayed.

Pocock traveled with the Brumbies to Cape Town, however was not part of the 23-man team that secured the narrow 19-17 win over the Stormers on Saturday.

Brumbies revealed that the star flank has flown home to Canberra to continue his recuperation from the calf injury and will miss fixture against the Jaguares.

This means 30-year-old will be sidelined for a sixth straight game.

Brumbies hard-fought win was accompanied with a dear price as replacement hooker Josh Mann-Rea suffered significant damage to his left knee.

Mann-Rea has also returned home from the tour and Connal McInerney has been called up into the squad.

McInerney will meet the team in Buenos Aires for the second tour match against the Jaguares at Estadio Jose Amalfitani, Velez Sarsfeld.
