Moyano Out For Three Weeks

Los Jaguares outside back, Ramiro Moyano is out for three weeks. The Tucumán wing / fullback left injured against the Sharks in Saturday’s home Super Rugby match.

This coming Saturday Los Jaguares are to play at home again. They will face Japanese side, the Sunwolves at Vélez Sarsfield. Moyano is not to feature at all. He has been diagnosed  with a sprain in the right acromion.

Moyano has been one of the stories of Los Jaguares’ season thus far. With five tries he has underlined himself as a serious option to play wing for Los Pumas. He is expected to be back in time to be fit for Argentina’s home internationals against England and Georgia.

Raúl Pérez has options to replace Moyano. In addition to Bautista Ezcurra Emiliano Boffelli, Santiago Cordero. Manuel Montero and Matías Moroni are all fit to face the Sunwolves. Nicolás Freitas is to link up with Los Teros for Rugby World Cup qualifiers against Brazil, Chile and Paraguay.
