New Zealand rugby player Aaron Mauger flies home
New Zealand All Blacks rugby star Aaron Mauger will have to miss the final match of their European tour against Wales on Saturday because he is flying home due to an injured knee.
Aaron Mauger, 26, and who earned his 38th cap in the 41-20 victory at Twickenham, hurt his right knee during their win over England earlier this month and then aggravated the injury during training in Paris last week
Aaron Mauger will fly home on Wednesday and could be away from the field for between four and six weeks if he has to have an operation.
The All Blacks, who had won both their matches against France and who play their last Test of the year at the Millennium Stadium, will not be calling up a replacement player and in Aaron Mauger's absence, Luke McAlister could be inside centre this weekend.
