Boks won’t have to face Tuilagi

– Star centre Manu Tuilagi is set to miss England’s autumn Tests against South Africa, Australia, Argentina and Fiji with a groin injury, his Leicester club said on Sunday.

The 25-year-old has not played since the first game of the season and director of rugby Richard Cockerill believes he will be out for another “six to eight weeks”.
