All Blacks winger Emoni Narawa`s unfortunate run with injuries continues as he faces another significant setback.

During the match against South Africa on September 6th, Narawa was forced to leave the field after just seven minutes. Medical examinations subsequently revealed he had not only broken his ribs but also sustained a punctured lung. While thankfully there were no further complications, the player is expected to need at least 3-4 months for a full recovery.

This injury means Narawa will unfortunately miss the upcoming autumn test matches, where the All Blacks are scheduled to compete against Ireland (November 1st), Scotland (November 8th), England (November 15th), and Wales (November 22nd).
