Champions Cup: O’Gara announces that Bourgarit, injured in the shoulder, will be absent “between three and four months”

Stade Rochelais international hooker Pierre Bourgarit made his return to competition this Sunday against Leicester, after suffering a shoulder injury. The number 2 of the Maritimes was again hit in the same shoulder, in the 48th minute of the match against the English. He immediately left the Deflandre lawn in tears, his arm in a sling.

In a post-match press conference, his manager, Irishman Ronan O’Gara, said he estimated his absence from the field at “probably between 3 and 4 months”. Adding: “We’ll see this week with the examination of his left shoulder.” Pierre Bourgarit, third in the hierarchy of hookers in the French team behind Julien Marchant and Peato Mauvaka, will therefore miss the next Six Nations Tournament, which begins on Friday February 2 with a shock at the Véldrome against Ireland.
