Handre Pollard has spoken about the 'very deep low' after that awful injury

Montpellier and South Africa fly-half Handré Pollard has shared a message for the first time since rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament against Racing 92 last Friday.

The 26-year-old described to his followers on Instagram the nature of a rugby career, which is full of highs and lows. His message was accompanied by a photo of himself being stretchered off the field at the Paris La Defense Arena. He said:

“This beautiful game we play has so many highs and brings so much joy to our hearts, but on the flip side in a second it can take you to a very deep low.

“Injuries are a part of this game we love and this is just another test of character. I am really sad that I have to leave my Montpellier brothers so early in the season, I will be supporting you all the way.

“I am ready for the challenge ahead and coming out on the other side stronger than ever before.”
