Wallabies dealt brutal Skelton blow

Will Skelton is facing a race against time to be fit for the 2026 Test season, with fears the towering lock has suffered a season-ending injury while on club duty. The 33-year-old lasted just 30 minutes in La Rochelle’s 26-15 Top 14 defeat to Bayonne on Saturday before being forced off with a suspected ruptured Achilles, struggling to leave the field. It comes just a week after Skelton returned from a two-month layoff with a calf injury, making the latest setback even more cruel. While the full extent of the injury is yet to be confirmed, the early signs are ominous. MORE: Wallabies land All Blacks mastermind “There’s a suspected Achilles tendon rupture,” La Rochelle assistant coach Rémi Talès said. “It’s tough for a player like him, given the effort he’s put in to come back after his calf injury. “We’re all thinking of him and hope he recovers quickly, because we need him.” Talès admitted Skelton’s absence had an immediate impact, particularly at the set-piece. “We were playing well,” he said. “When you see (Levani) Botia (who suffered a calf injury) and Skelton go off, even if you’re down to fourteen men, you gain a psychological advantage. “We paid dearly for Will’s absence in the mauls, as we conceded two tries in the second half. We lacked experience.” If confirmed, the injury would likely rule Skelton out for the remainder of the club season – including La Rochelle’s Top 14 and EPCR Challenge Cup commitments – and place serious doubt over his involvement in the Wallabies’ 2026 campaign. ALSO: Boks to play Wallabies Down Under Australia are set for a packed international schedule, including Tests against Ireland, France, Italy, Japan, Argentina, the Springboks and the All Blacks. Losing Skelton for that stretch would be a significant blow to Joe Schmidt’s plans.

All Blacks heavy sidelined after shock hospitalisation

One of the All Blacks’ scrumming powerhouses has been ruled out for the remainder of the Super Rugby season after being hospitalised with a serious back infection. This is a major blow for both the Crusaders and the All Blacks. Tamaiti Williams has been diagnosed with discitis, an infection in one of the discs in his spine, and remains under medical care. He will stay in hospital until he is stable enough to return home, with his recovery timeline to be guided strictly by medical advice. MORE: Lights go out on Super Rugby It means Williams will play no further part in the current Super Rugby campaign, which runs through to mid-June. His availability for the international season – with New Zealand set to host France in July – will depend on his rehabilitation progress. Despite the setback, Williams struck a resilient tone. “I’m feeling gutted, but I’m also grateful that the news isn’t as bad as what it could be,” he said. “Being in hospital you see a lot and it makes you appreciate that this place is here to save us. “I’ve been told I’m going to make a 100 percent recovery, so I’m thankful for that.” KEO & ZELS: Boks beware, the real All Blacks are coming The powerful loosehead, who has already earned 26 Test caps, now faces a period on the sidelines as he focuses on a full recovery. The loss of Williams at a crucial stage of the season, with the defending champions currently sitting sixth on the log after seven rounds – still firmly in the play-off hunt, but now without one of their frontline forwards. – AFP The post All Blacks heavy sidelined after shock hospitalisation appeared first on SA Rugby magazine.
