Folau faces month off

ISRAEL Folau’s hamstring injury is set to sideline him for four weeks but the NSW Waratahs believe they have a weapon on the other wing, who’s still getting better.

Wallabies star Folau was hurt in the early minutes of the Tahs’ Super Rugby win over the Brumbies last weekend.

“I believe it’s more muscular than tendon-based,” NSW attack coach Chris Malone said.

A big plus for NSW is the form of their other winger, Taqele Naiyaravoro, who has scored four tries in two games.
