Union Bordeaux-Bègles supporters will have to wait a little longer to see Romain Buros play his first Top 14 match of the season. Injured in the pre-season match against Soyaux-Angoulême over the summer, the UBB full-back will be out for another three or four weeks, according to our colleagues at Sud-Ouest. The France international (1 cap) suffered complications following his injury.

The Aire-sur-l’Adour native (Landes) had been due to return this weekend against Stade Français or next week against Lyon. That will not be the case. On the plus side, the European champions do welcome back wing Salesi Rayasi, who arrived from Vannes. It is worth noting that he can also play at full-back, as he did recently with Fiji.
