An injury-ravaged Springbok loose forward faces another spell on the sidelines after picking up an injury for his new club in the PREM.

Bath have confirmed that Springbok loose forward Dan du Preez faces a spell on the sidelines after tearing his hamstring in training. The injury ruled the 31-year-old out of Bath's Investec Champions Cup match against Montpellier, and head of rugby Johann van Graan confirmed he will miss at least the club's next two Premiership matches.
Du Preez's absence compounds Bath's growing back-row concerns, joining Sam Underhill, Billy Sela, and Jamie Bhatti on the injury list. However, Miles Reid is available for selection against Gloucester, while Will Muir, Tom de Glanville, and Henry Arundell have returned to partial training.
