New Zealand winger Waisake Naholo is on the verge of completing his remarkable recovery from a broken leg after being announced in New Zealand’s squad for their third game of the 2015 Rugby World Cup against Georgia at the Millenium stadium on Friday evening.
Naholo, who broke his leg on his test debut for the All Blacks just 11 weeks ago has recovered much faster than anyone could have anticipated or hoped for when his debut for the All Blacks turned into a nightmare. In order to aid his recovery, he has used herbal treatments in Fiji to help make sure he was fit to participate in the World Cup.
According to 3News, New Zealand coach Steve Hansen has signalled out Naholo, admitting that he has been outstanding in training and that his pace and agility gives his New Zealand side another dimension.
Regardless of whether Naholo plays against Georgia, New Zealand will be expected to continue their 100% winning record so far this tournament and all but seal their qualification from Pool C.
