Wood to visit surgeon in bid to get his season back on track

KEITH WOOD visits a surgeon today with his rugby season in the balance.

The injured Irish skipper has no idea when he will be fit for competitive action and at a time when he should be preparing for the Six Nations clash with France, he is left to ponder on another F word frustration.

"It's all very frustrating especially when people ask when I'll be back and I can't tell them. But at least I do have the benefits of seeing Ireland beat everybody they take on. It's not all negatives."
