Argentina fullback to have shoulder surgery

Argentina full-back Martin Rodriguez will have an operation on his shoulder which was dislocated in the Pumas 15-54 loss to New Zealand's All Blacks in the Rugby Championship.

Rodriguez, who plays his club rugby for Top 14 outfit Stade Francais, will go under the knife in the "coming days", the Argentinian federation said.

The 27-year-old, capped 19 times, will miss the Pumas' final run-out in the Championships against Australia on Saturday as well as the November internationals against Wales, France and Ireland.
