Foot injury sidelines Jonathan Davies for 6 months

Wales Rugby have confirmed that Jonathan Davies is set to be sidelined for around six months after suffering a foot injury during a 29-21 loss to Australia three days ago.

The Scarlets centre will therefore miss Wales' remaining autumn Tests against Georgia, New Zealand and South Africa, and also potentially the entire Six Nations.
