Highlanders have injury worries

Nick Evans

The Highlanders have some major injury concerns following this morning's 23-16 loss to the Bulls in Pretoria.

First five Nick Evans scored a brilliant solo try in the first half but was forced off the field in the second spell with a shoulder problem.

Coach Greg Cooper says while the Evans injury looks bad, Craig Newby also has a shoulder complaint and Hoani MacDonald is struggling with a foot problem.

Meanwhile, two tries in the final five minutes have given the Hurricanes a 23-19 win over the Stormers in this morning's Super 14 match in Cape Town.
