Rugby: Injury concerns for Lions before URC quarterfinal vs Leinster

# Rugby: The Lions will probably be without two stalwarts, Springbok scrumhalf Morné van der Berg and flanker Ruan Venter, for next weekend’s United Rugby Championship quarterfinal against Leinster in Ireland. Both returned home already, while the rest of the squad remained in Ireland after this past weekend’s final group match against Munster. The Johannesburg team is also worried over the fitness of captain Francke Horn and centre Henco van Wyk, but coach Ivan van Rooyen believes both could recover in time for the Leinster clash.
