RUGBY UNION
The South African World Cup winner could be out for up to five months having undergone surgery on a hip flexor injury.
Will Cliff is also out injured for the next few weeks, while the impressive Raffi Quirke will be joining up with the England squad for the Autumn internationals and possibly the Six Nations too.
Gus Warr starts at No.9 for Sale in their Gallagher Premiership game at Leicester today, with Academy youngster Nye Thomas being named as a replacement for the first time.
And having seen the impact Quirke has made, Sanderson has no issues with drafting in Thomas.
"We've got decent cover (at scrum-half) when Cliffy comes back. Gus Warr has been looking really good in training too." he said.
