England winger Manny Feyi-Waboso is expected to remain available for next month’s internationals after injuring his hamstring while playing for Exeter against Newcastle. Initial scans did not indicate major damage, according to Exeter director of rugby Rob Baxter.

The player will miss Exeter’s opening Champions Cup fixture at Toulouse. Medical staff from both club and country have reviewed the scan, with early indications pointing towards a return rather than a prolonged absence.

England’s opening Nations Championship match against Australia is scheduled for 8 November. Availability remains dependent on recovery, so the positive assessment is an early indication rather than confirmation that the winger can immediately resume competitive action.
