    Force prop van Wyk dislocates wrist

    Not good news

    Nick Taylor
    Western Force have suffered a pre-season setback with specialist loosehead prop Francois van Wyk badly dislocating his right wrist.
    Scan results were due today with the club hoping its South African import has not damaged ligaments, which could see van Wyk miss the start of the Super Rugby season.

    "Van Wyk had been pushing former Wallaby and Force veteran Pek Cowan hard for the starting jumper"
    - that's how he got injured? TTFU mate.

    The Western Force have been hit by another injury setback, with prop Tetera Faulkner likely to miss the first six weeks of the season.

    Tighthead Faulkner reportedly tore a medial ligament in training on Tuesday, six weeks out from the start of the Super Rugby season.

    The 27-year-old started all but one match in the Force’s 2015 season and has become a key plank of the Force front row.

    His injury adds salt to the already wounded Force forward pack, after South African loosehead Francois Van Wyk dislocated his wrist, leaving him unavailable for the first six matches.

    The WA franchise will be heavily reliant on veteran prop Pek Cowan going into the 2016 season, leaving the 29-year-old with a big weight on his shoulders.

    The Force plays its first trial against the Hurricanes on February 3 in Gosford, with their opening Super Rugby match against the Rebels in Perth on February

    Bugger! I hate our pre season training. Tets will be missed apart from Guy Millar who does that leave us with?

    To be fair to Eddie, I don't think Kieran has had much game time over the past year because of injury :-(
