The SA Rugby magazine team rounds up some of the interesting snippets of news making headlines around the world.

All Blacks wing set to miss World Cup

All Blacks and Hurricanes back Nehe Milner-Skudder has had his hopes of making the 2019 World Cup squad dashed after suffering another injury setback.

The 28-year-old will undergo another operation on his shoulder issue, which has prohibited him from taking part in any action in this year’s Vodacom Super Rugby tournament.

As he is set to join French club Toulon next year, it is likely he has played his final game for club and country.

Carter’s road to 2015 to become a film

Former All Blacks flyhalf Dan Carter has announced that his journey to the 2015 World Cup title will be made into a film.

The 2015 World Cup was a crucial moment in Carter’s career after he missed the 2011 World Cup through injury. He kicked 16 points in the final against Australia to help the All Blacks defend their title.

Carter made the announcement on social media on Wednesday.

The official title of the film and its trailer will be released soon.

Gatland to retain B&I Lions job
