South Africa’s Rugby Planet Cup campaign is in jeopardy as hooker Malcolm Marx undergoes scans for an undisclosed injury sustained for the duration of education. Despite the fact that Marx was not anticipated to play in the team’s upcoming match against Romania, his availability for the rest of the tournament is a concern for the Springboks. Group officials have not offered specifics about Marx’s injury but will offer an update on his fitness quickly. The South African squad does not have a third specialist hooker, with loose forwards Deon Fourie and Marco van Staden nominated as cover. Marx’s injury comes following lock Eben Etzebeth left final week’s game against Scotland with a shoulder situation. Etzebeth is anticipated to return for the group match against Ireland on September 23.
