Cherry answers Scotland SOS

By AFP
Monday 7 Feb 2022

INJURY UPDATE: Scotland have called up Dave Cherry after confirming Jamie Ritchie will miss this weekend's Six Nations clash against Wales with an injury he picked up in Saturday's victory over England.

The 25-year-old was taken off on the buggy during the second half of the 20-17 win in Edinburgh and left the stadium on crutches, casting doubt on his participation in the remainder of the tournament.

The Scottish Rugby Union said on Monday that flanker Ritchie had not joined up with the squad to prepare for the trip to the Principality Stadium, with Edinburgh hooker Cherry called into Gregor Townsend's pool.

Bath back-row forward Josh Bayliss, who has been suffering from a concussion recently, is still not ready to join up with the squad.

A statement on the SRU's Twitter feed said: "Jamie Ritchie and Josh Bayliss have not met up with the squad this week through injury.

"Dave Cherry has joined up with the team."
