Thomas Domingo: Injury blow for Clermont

Clermont and French international prop Thomas Domingo has been ruled out for at least four weeks after undergoing knee surgery.

Domingo damaged the meniscus of his right knee in training on Thursday and his club have confirmed that he underwent arthroscopic surgery on Friday.

The injury means 21-cap international will miss Clermont's back-to-back Heineken Cup clashes with Leinster over the next fortnight.

This is, what? his third injury to the right knee in 18 months? No good omen on the long term.

Hopefully for France Barcella will come back to his 2009-2010 level.

domingo's facebook page has just announced the op went well, so good luck to him in his recovery...

@leinster fans, domingo is big loss, yes, but koetze and chaume took apart the toulouse front row last weekend. and debaty, zirakashvili, kayser and paulo will all feature at some point. not a bad bunch!

Now if the rest of their squad catch a stomach bug, we might come away with a win.
