WALLABIES captain David Pocock is in danger of missing Australia's Rugby Championship clash with world champions New Zealand in Auckland next week.
The openside flanker was hurt in Saturday night's 27-19 loss to the All Blacks in Sydney, and Wallabies coach Robbie Deans said his skipper was getting a knee scan today.
Asked if Pocock could miss Saturday's game at Eden Park, where Australia have not won since 1986, Deans said "that's a possibility."
He said halfback Will Genia would lead the side next Saturday if Pocock was unavailable. more here
Surely Sharpie would be better as Captain?????

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
Not surprised, he looked really sore after the match, even a bit dazed. It will be really interesting to see how they do without him and to ascertain just how important he is to the Wallabies.
