Crusader Wing Jone Macilai, photographed by Chief Scoundrel Solomon Alaimalo in Hamilton on June 2, was ruled out of Super Rugby because of a broken leg.
Injuries destroyed the chances of Jone Macilai and Billy Harmon to help the Crusaders defend the Super Rugby
The Macilai wing suffered a fractured tibial plateau while it represented the Crusaders against the French barbarians in Christchurch on June 15, which required surgery. Although the Crusaders have not been able to determine when he will return to play, the rehab period will be similar to that of other knee surgeries.
Harmon maintained a high grade medial ligament and a PCL injury against the Barbarians. This required an operation and will be unavailable for the rest of the Super Rugby season. He should return for Canterbury at the Miter Cup 10.

"Jone was coming back from a long injury, and Billy is in his first season with the Crusaders, so we feel for those two guys, but they're certainly in good hands with our world-class medical team and we wish them both a speedy recovery. "
Crusaders, who had last weekend's bye and will secure first place if they get a Nus point bo against the Highlanders in their match at Christchurch on Friday night, are already well served with wings.
