Recuperating Vickery to miss start of Six Nations


Wasps prop Phil Vickery will miss the start of the Six Nations contempt undergoing successful neck surgery. Vickery requires a minimum three months of reclamation from the injury sustained against Racing Metro last month.
With England opening their Six Nations against Wales on 6 February, Vickery has little hope of forcing his way back into the team until later in the tournament. But the Wasps director of rugby, Tony Hanks, is backing the 33 year old to make a complete recovery from his latest injury setback.
