All Blacks sweat over Carter

All Blacks sweat over Carter

23 Nov 2012

Dan Carter picked up a leg injury at training and could miss the All Blacks’ Test against Wales on Saturday.

All Blacks head coach Steve Hansen confirmed that Carter suffered a ‘leg twinge’ at training on Thursday. The flyhalf’s availability will be confirmed on Friday.

According to reports, a recovery in time for the match in Cardiff this weekend is unlikely.

If Carter is ruled out, Aaron Cruden will step in. However, the All Blacks could have no specialist flyhalf cover because third-choice pivot Beauden Barrett is struggling with a rib injury.

    That is sad.

    Only heard about his condition yesterday when they were advertising his “last ever book” being on sale.

    He was a good story teller.

    @poppa69-59: Power of One has to be one of strongest novels of our time. (IMHO). Read it as a youngster (teen) and the impact it had on me was unrivalled.
    The fella knew he was going soon it seems…hence the rush to complete (and the final greeting in) his last novel.

    But that sure beats having to tap her on the shoulder and let her know you’re done so she can get on with her day. I bet that’s no fun, hey?

    @ryecatcher-82: I too am a little edgy about this one. Our forwards should be strong enough..but I worry about all this talk of Meyer telling Lambie to ‘play his own game’ etc etc.

    With current state of Welsh team the visitors should win by 20+, Carter or no Carter.
