Carter to sit out Ospreys clash

Perpignan’s New Zealand fly-half Dan Carter will miss Saturday’s make-or-break Heineken Cup match against the Ospreys after being told to rest for a week.

The 26-year-old felt pain in his left Achilles tendon during the first half of Perpignan’s 40-14 win over Bourgoin and was replaced at half-time as a precaution.
