In what some will see as the final nail in the coffin, Southern Kings flyhalf and top points scorer, Demetri Catrakilis, will miss the second promotion relegation game against the MTN Lions on 3 August in Johannesburg after sustaining a shoulder injury.
Director of Rugby, Alan Solomons, confirmed Catrakilis would be out for between four to six weeks.
“Demetri has sustained a similar injury to that of Steven Sykes earlier this season, which will see him out for between four and six weeks, which means he will not be up for contention for the second promotion relegation game,” said Solomons.
Catrakilis came off in the 57th minute of the game against the MTN Lions on Friday night.
