Horgan is latest Munster casualty

MUNSTER winger Anthony Horgan may be out of competitive rugby for at least six months in what is another serious injury blow to new coach Alan Gaffney.

Having already lost David Wallace and Paul O’Connell to long term injury, Gaffney is now faced with losing Horgan until January when the Heineken Cup campaign will be getting into its second phase.

Horgan had an MRI scan on a long term shoulder injury yesterday and it is understood that he will now undergo an operation in two weeks time which will keep him out until the final two group games in January.
