The Wallabies have suffered another blow after it was revealed that powerful winger Digby Ioane will miss the rest of the 2010 campaign after re-injuring his shoulder in a contact training session on Saturday.
"He went down, his brother fell on him and the shoulder popped,"Wallaby coach Robbie Deans told reporters.
"He's gone for the Tri-Nations." "It's tough on Digby because he got his hopes up," Deans told Reuters.
"He's a tough bloke and he's a great bloke and he deserves a lot. He will get a lot. He will be rewarded as an individual he's just paying forward, I guess."
Ioane, who originally dislocated his shoulder during the loss to England in June, will now undergo surgery and is facing six months on the sidelines and is therefore only expected back in action next year in the Super 15.
The winger was in sublime form for the Reds this year in the Super 14 but has not been able to remain fit long enough to make an impact for the Wallabies.
