Tommy Bowe admits long road ahead in fitness battle

Ireland and Ulster winger Tommy Bowe admits he faces a long road to recovery following the knee injury sustained in the World Cup quarter-final loss to Argentina.

The Monaghan man underwent major surgery to repair posterior cruciate ligament and meniscal injuries to his right knee and will miss all of the 2016 Six Nations.

Though the operation was carried out in October, Bowe admits that it is too early to say if it can bee deemed a success.
