Surgery for Blair
Wed, 18 Jun 2008 23:58
Scotland captain Mike Blair underwent an operation on a minor rib problem on Wednesday, just hours after returning from a two-Test tour of Argentina.
Blair told scottishrugby.org that the problem was "nothing drastic, just a bit uncomfortable when I sleep on it."
The 27-year-old Edinburgh scrumhalf shared his thoughts about the operation, saying: "Apparently it will feel like I've been punched in the guts afterwards and I'll be taking it easy for a couple of weeks."
Scotland lost 15-21 in Rosario on June 7, before winning 26-14 in Buenos Aires a week later to tie the series.
