3 DHL Western Province players have found themselves on the injury list following their massive defeat to the Xerox Golden Lions in Johannesburg.

Kobus van Wyk (hamstring contusion), Chris Cloete (calf muscle) and Cheslin Kolbe (bone bruising and a knock to shoulder) are all unavailable for selection for their final round-robin match against the Eastern Province Kings at Newlands on Friday.

The trio joins Scarra Ntubeni (calf muscle) and Rynhardt Elstadt (quadricep), who remains on the injured list and are also unavailable.

There is a silver lining for the Cape side though, as both Jano Vermaak and Dillyn Leyds have recovered from their groin strains and are available for selection.

The respective Under 21 and Under 19 teams will be in action as well, with the Under 19s taking on the EP Kings at 13:45 SA Time and the Under 21s meeting at 15:45 SA Time.

One Response to Currie Cup: WP injury concerns deepen

    Jeeez, there are a lot of perrennial SICK NOTES at WP!

    Cheslin Kolbe crocked again… he plays less than half the time lately.
    Kobus van Wyk, just as injury prone
    Rynhardt Elstadt is even worse… surely he plays less than a 3rd of a season on average!

    There are others too…

    Just as bad at some other Unions… like Deon Stegmann at the Blue Bulls…
