We bring you the latest from the Rugby World Cup 2011.
Habana out of Fiji clash, concern over Muller
Bryan Habana has been ruled out of Saturday’s clash against Fiji due to a knee injury he picked up in the game against Wales. There is also massive concern over Johann Muller who limped from training yesterday in what appeared to be a hamstring strain.
Already without the services of Victor Matfield and Bakkies Botha not available for the match, the Boks might consider playing Francois Louw at lock for this weekend’s game.
Dan Carter replaced
Dan Carter has been replaced in the New Zealand team for their match against Japan due to a sore back.
Colin Slade will take his place in the starting XV with Piri Weepu covering the flyhalf position from the bench.
RWC over for Sheridan, Skrela
Andrew Sheridan (Eng) and David Skrela (Fra) will both return home due to sustaining tournament ending shoulder injuries.
Jean-Marc Doussain of Toulouse will replace Skrela while Martin Johnson is yet to decide who will replace Sheridan.

Here we go again… play a LOCK at LOCK Snor and co… none of this repeat Kanko at lock stuff!
Mostert should have been on his second training day already!
Can see it now… Alberts will be playing lock…

and how do you want to do it? Who will have to go home for Mostert?
Bakkies could be fit next week as well as Muller and Matfield… Should 1 of them be sent home and miss the rest of the RWC for Mostert?

1st RWC I have seen with so many injuries in the 1st few days
September 14th, 2011 at 10:48 am
I would play Alberts at Lock with Danie with Flouw on the bench

Cannot see how Bakkies can last this match! Chronic condition does not go away without SUSTAINED resting.

Reply to Bekke @ 11:24 am:
exactly and NO time for that at the RWC – probably Bakkies last game for the Bokke!
