The Super Rugby clock is ticking for Lion's injured players

Knee injuries make up most of the team's worries with Derick Minnie recovering from a serious knee injury since April last year. Justin Ackerman fractured his patella in August and Harold Vorster also injured his knee in the same month. Ruan Combrinck suffered is knee injured in September and Martin Muller sustained a stress fracture in his left leg in October. Each player's recovery looks on track, but time will tell if they are ready for action come early February.
