Scotland reeling from freak injury blow
Scotland coach Gregor Townsend has been left sweating on the fitness of winger Darcy Graham after he taken to hospital with concussion during the 32-18 defeat to Ireland.
After 21 minutes, Graham colided with team-mate Finn Russell and received lengthy treatment before being carried off. Russell also went off but later passed a HIA.
“Darcy is in hospital and that’s never good,” said Townsend. “We are still waiting for scans. I believe there are no issues around his neck. But it’s more just seeing where the concussion has come from. I’m just hoping there are no broken bones around the face or skull area.”
The winger was treated on the Murrayfield pitch for around 10 minutes before being taken off on a buggy with his head and neck in a brace.
