Warren Gatland has revealed at today’s Six Nations launch that the fullback could require surgery on a groin injury.
The BBC are reporting that “Wales medical staff are hoping they can help clear the problem but, if not, he may require surgery which would then almost certainly rule him out of the rest of the Six Nations.”
