VB Kangaroos winger Jarryd Hayne has tonight been ruled out of the Four Nations tournament with a hamstring injury.
Hayne missed Kangaroos training today to have scans and tonight met with VB Kangaroos coaching and medical staff after the results revealed a partial tear to the hamstring tendon at the origin – an injury that will sideline the Eels star for at least six weeks.
A “shattered” Hayne tonight said: “I feel empty at the moment.
“It was pretty sore over the weekend but I was hoping it would be all right.
“It means everything to me to play for my country so to miss out like this, I am shattered.
“I just want to wish the boys well for the tournament and now I just have to focus on my rehab and getting ready for next season.”
A replacement player has not yet been named.
