WILKINSON AND HENSON TEST DOUBTS
Picture
Wilkinson - getting treatment during the Test.

Lions backs Jonny Wilkinson and Gavin Henson are both facing a fitness fight before next Saturday's third Test against the All Blacks in Auckland.

England fly-half Wilkinson went off midway through the second half as the Lions crashed to a 48-18 second Test defeat in Wellington earlier.

The Lions medical team are currently assessing his injury, which has been described as a "stinger" in his arm and shoulder area.

Wilkinson has suffered from similar numbness in his arm since the World Cup 19 months ago, and it looks unlikely that he will feature when the Lions try to avoid a 3-0 series defeat.

Wales centre Henson, meanwhile, is a concussion concern, and the Lions head coach Sir Clive Woodward said: "At this stage, we are not sure about Gavin and we are not sure about Jonny."

The Lions fly to Auckland for the final two matches of the trip that proved beyond them, with regards to the Test series.
