Bristol lose scrumhalf to injury

Bristol lose scrumhalf to injury

Some bad news for Bristol Bears with the news that Harry Randall has been ruled out for four months after coming through surgery to a torn muscle. 

 

Randall picked up the injury against Exeter Chiefs earlier this season and now faces a significant amount of rehabilitation which will render him unavailable for England selection as well. 

 

“Harry had surgery on a hamstring tear yesterday and will be out for between three and four months,” said Bristol director of rugby Pat Lam on Wednesday. 


 

“He did it tackling Jack Nowell and got in an awkward position. It is a loss for us, but time for Andy (Uren) and Tom (Whiteley) to step up. 


 

“We are not looking elsewhere at the moment. We lost Harry one week last year, then Andy the next and then Tom and then two others. I hope it is not the same. 

 

“It is frustrating for us, but all the more so for Harry. Some of the hamstring came off the bone, and he had surgery to repair it. 

 

“I feel for him, but I have always said injuries are an opportunity to improve, and he will come back fighting fit.”
