Wales lose another player as Baldwin is ruled out for the rest of the season

WALES suffered another injury blow today with squad hooker Scott Baldwin being ruled out for the rest of this season.

The Ospreys forward was among three hookers in Wales’s Six Nations squad, with Ken Owens starting tomorrow’s championship opener against Scotland and Elliot Dee on the bench.

Wales are without several senior internationals for the Scotland clash. Sam Warburton, Jonathan Davies, Taulupe Faletau, Dan Biggar and Rhys Webb are among those sidelined.
