Dan Carter provides post-surgery update
By Josh Raisey
All Blacks legend Dan Carter has given his followers on Instagram an update on his health after having surgery on his neck.
The fly-half was due to return to French giants Racing 92 in February as a medical joker from Japanese outfit Kobelco Steelers, but failed his own medical. Carter was due to cover for the recently retired Pat Lambie, but a neck problem prevented him from the Parisian side.
He has now had the surgery on his neck, and sent this message out on social media in a neck brace on a hospital bed:

I thought you meant in europe. Because all of the reasons theyre different I wouldn't correlate that to mean for europe, as in french broadcasters pay two or three times as much as the UK or SA broadcasters do, like they do for their league.
With France, it's not just about viewers, they are also paying much more. So no doubt there will be a hit (to the amount the French teams receive for only playing a fraction of it) but they may not care too much as long as the big clubs, the top 8 for example, enter the meaty end, and it wouldn't have the same value to them as the top14 contract/compensation does. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if the 3 separate networks broadcast deals only went to the clubs in their regions as well (that's how SR ended up (unbalanced) I believe).
