Wales star to make Six Nations return after horror match incident sparked fears she could lose arm

Wales forward Georgia Evans is ready to make her Six Nations return following a horrific arm injury a year ago which left doctors fearing she could lose her arm.

The 26-year-old back-rower/lock was on Saracens duty last February when her arm was trapped awkwardly in a tackle. The game was halted for 45 minutes while she received urgent medical attention after dislocating her wrist and breaking her radius and ulna.

"Inside the medical room they were concerned they couldn’t find a pulse in my wrist and so decided they had to re-set my wrist," Evans has said of the incident. "The worry was that I could lose my arm."
