England are set to play without Tom Croft


In Six Nations, England are set to play without Tom Croft because due to injured in his shoulder, England's final November international against South Africa when it was revealed that he did not want surgery.

Richard Cockerill 25 years old has revealed spell on the sidelines could be three times as long as initial suggestions.

Cockerill said, "He is seeing a specialist and he will be out for another six to eight weeks. His shoulder is intact but it was a pretty traumatic blow to it. The cartilage is all in one piece, which is good news. But all of the nerves around it have to recover. It will be six weeks at best but eight weeks is more realistic. The fracture is healing well but there is trauma to the soft tissue around it".
