    McCalman out for 3 Months!

    Ben McCalman, who had been part of the wider Qantas Wallabies training group, underwent surgery last evening after fracturing the radius in his forearm.

    McCalman, who was returning from a nerve injury in his shoulder which had sidelined him for much of the year, is expected to be out of action for a minimum of three months.

    He would never have made the field in front of that passenger Higginbotham....after him comes the invisible Cliff Palu, who disappears in the big games.

    Benny Mac is just a good solid worker who doesn't talk himself up....hasn't a chance against hollow superstars like that!

    It may very well be a positive for him.

    3 month break from rugby. Back in time to get fit for next year. Start next season ready for action.

    It's all good.
