Surgery blow for Warrick Gelant
South Africa have received a setback ahead of the Rugby Championship after Warrick Gelant revealed that he requires surgery on his shoulder.
The Bulls full-back, who enjoyed a solid Super Rugby season, is expected to miss several months due to the operation, which he confirmed on Twitter.
South Africa kick-off the Rugby Championship with a home game against Argentina in Durban on August 18, with Willie le Roux set to continue in the number 15 shirt after an impressive June series.
