Zach Gallagher is injured?

Welsh test centurion Leigh Halfpenny's future in Super Rugby Pacific is uncertain, after he suffered a serious chest injury against Munster in Ireland last Sunday morning (NZT). The Crusaders have confirmed the fullback, who transferred to Christchurch after 101 appearances for Wales and four for the British and Irish Lions, tore a pectoral muscle during the 21-19 loss to Munster in Cork.

Yeah He won't play much or more likely no Super Rugby.

Jordan is dealing with a lingering shoulder complaint and is being reviewed by the Christchurch-based franchise’s medical team. An update is expected by the end of the week
Loose forward Ethan Blackadder, who also missed much of last year injured, is expected to miss the first three or four games with a calf injury, while midfielder David Havili is returning from an extended break and won’t be available until week two.
-
I am shocked Blackadder is injured. I never saw that coming.

@Crazy-Horse Man is he related to Charlie Ngatai, meant to be a great player, but never got on field?

@Lancaster-Park Havili to his proper position at FB, McLeod and Aumua in the midfield with Crotty and Fihaki providing cover. Yeah, you guys will be fine.
-
@Lancaster-Park yeah and Fihaki has many flaws.

Penney said they'd prefer not to move Havili
Havili is probably more useful to the team at fullback right now. I would argue he'd be more useful at ten until Burke returns too. There's solid options at 12
