Newport Gwent Dragon’s Marc Stcherbina is recovering in hospital after what has been described as a ‘successful’ neck operation.
The 32-year-old centre suffered a serious neck injury in the 27-7 defeat to Toulouse and there has been great concern over the extent of his injury.
However Dragons chief executive Gethin Jenkins was happy to report some good news, “Marc has had an operation to stabilise his neck following damage to a disc and a crack in a bone. The operation has gone well and he has movement in his arms and legs.”
