Landers lashed by injury
7 May 2012
The Highlanders have suffered a triple injury blow with flank Doug Tietjens, No 8 Elliot Dixon and centre Shaun Treeby all ruled out for the rest of the season.
Tietjens injured a cruciate ligament in last week’s game against the Sharks, Dickson ruptured a pectoral muscle and Treeby fractured a cheekbone.
Coach Jamie Joseph faces some tough decisions ahead of an important match against the Hurricanes this week. The Highlanders are in sixth position on the overall log.

Good news for the Sharks. The landers are the team most likely to drop out of the six.

Hopefully Dean Greyling and Wynand Olivier will be back in action when we take these guys on next week.
