All Blacks wing Sevu Reece won’t play again this year due to a serious knee injury.

Reece, who sustained the injury while being awkwardly cleaned out at a ruck by Blues centre Rieko Ioane a fortnight ago, will have surgery to repair his busted anterior cruciate ligament in the coming weeks.

Not only does it wipe Reece out for the rest of Super Rugby Pacific, All Blacks coach Ian Foster can scratch him from his list of potential players for the World Cup in France later this year.
