'Izzy looks like he's done a hamstring' - Folau setback in Waratahs win
Israel Folau could miss a month of the Super Rugby season after suffering a hamstring injury while playing for the Waratahs.
The Australia international came off in just the fourth minute of his side's 24-17 victory over the Brumbies at Canberra Stadium on Saturday.
Folau will have a scan to discover the full extent of the damage but appears certain to miss the trip to Japan to take on Sunwolves on April 7, as well as the home games against the Reds and Lions.
"Izzy looks like he's done a hamstring, probably three to four weeks at this stage," Waratahs coach Daryl Gibson said after the game.
Taqele Naiyaravoro scored two tries while Bernard Foley kicked a conversion and four penalties to help Waratahs defeat their rivals and move up to second place in the Australian Conference table.

It was the strangest result ever. Etzebeth should've been yellow card for his cynical retiring move and a penalty try. Birth second half tries by the Allblacks were fantastic and the TMO operating outside the law to rule out the first try was egregious. Yes, the boks got the win but it was through some bizarre officiating that allowed them to sneak home against 14 men that dominated them. The quieter Bok supporters know and acknowledge the Allblacks were the better and dominant side. Justifying the win because they beat a pre world cup Allblacks selection is silly.
