Tomás Cubelli ruled out of Rugby Championship

Argentina have suffered an injury blow; Tomás Cubelli has been ruled out of the Rugby Championship. The 32-year-old suffered a hand injury in training at Biarritz. He will now require surgery and will be unable to compete for Los Pumas in the Rugby Championship.

Cubelli started all three matches for Los Pumas in July. He was a try scorer in the final match, Argentina’s record-setting win over Wales in Cardiff. The match saw him winning his 79th cap. Only Nicolás Sánchez has more caps of those on the roster for the Rugby Championship.

Cubelli will be replaced by another scrum-half. The player is yet to be named. Full story via americasrugbynews
