The Lions have revealed that they have been hit again by injury as Andries Coetzee and Deon van Rensburg have both been ruled out of the rest of Super Rugby.

Andries Coetzee went off early in the weekend's Super Rugby match against the Stormers at Newlands and was replaced by rookie fullback Ruan Combrinck.

Winger Deon van Rensburg also played his last Super Rugby game of the 2012 season on Saturday.

The Lions did receive some good news though as Ruan Combrink, Tian Meyer, Cobus Grobbelaar and CJ van der Linde may be called up for the final matches of the season.
