"We ran the play round the front and Will is the decoy around the back and he got king hit from the side, it looked like a shoulder, and when you’re not expecting it that’s what happened. "Michael Hooper went down the front. Willie went around the back. I’m not sure who it was but they jammed his arm and broke it."Initial TV footage showed Genia look to run by Healy at the back of a lineout but cameras then swept up the pitch.

We will bring you more from Down Under when we have it.
