Wales rugby star Gavin Henson injures hand
Welsh rugby star Gavin Henson, who plays for the Ospreys, has been sidelined for four to six weeks because he has broken his hand during the EDF Energy Cup win against the Harlequins.
Gavin Henson, 25, will probably have to miss the rest of the group stages of the Heineken Cup, however, he should be able to take part in the Six Nations opener against England on 2 February.
Team doctor Rhydian Lewis explained: "From reviewing the match video, it appears that an opposition boot accidentally came into contact with his hand."
"Gavin was able to complete the game, albeit in some pain, and he was checked out immediately after the final whistle by our medical team, who diagnosed a suspected fracture of the fourth metacarpal in his left hand."
News of Gavin Henson's injury has come just after he was in the news for making a public apology for rowdy behaviour on the train home to Cardiff after the match against the Harlequins.
