Henco hopes to stay injury-free

Lions centre Henco van Wyk is one of the most promising youngsters in South African rugby, but in recent years has been stunted by recurring injuries, which led to him missing out on making his debut for the Springboks in 2024.

The 23-year-old was all set to put on the green and gold for the first time during the June and July internationals, after he was included in the Bok alignment camps earlier in the year, while coach Rassie Erasmus also couldn't conceal his admiration for the up-and-coming talent.

If he had impressed he may have even seen more game time during the Rugby Championship and end-of-year tour, but instead suffered a serious knee injury in April that led to him going under the knife and being ruled out for five months.
