Dane Haylett-Petty and Ben McCalman ruled out for the Force

 

 

Western Force duo Dane Haylett-Petty and Ben McCalman have been ruled out following the injuries they picked up against the Chiefs on the weekend.

Haylett-Petty is set to miss at least a month after tearing his hamstring, while McCalman has been ruled out indefinitely while he battles an ongoing shoulder issue.

The injury setbacks mean McCalman and Haylett-Petty could both miss out on the Wallabies’ home fixtures against Fiji, Scotland and Italy.

Luke Morahan is another injury concern for the Force after suffering a fracture near his eye socket. He will meet with a surgeon before determining whether he needs to have a plate inserted.

Other injuries include:  


Lock Adam Coleman (calf) will the clash against the Lions, before returning for the May 6 encounter against the Sharks in Durban.

Flanker Angus Cottrell, who suffered a serious knee injury last year, is expected to return for the final two games of the season.


Prop Jermaine Ainsley (dislocated elbow) is out for the year.
