RUGBY star Jonny Wilkinson's bad luck with injuries appeared to have struck again tonight when he injured ribs playing for Newcastle Falcons.
The fly-half left the field clutching his injured ribs and in obvious pain during the club's Guinness Premiership game against Gloucester at Kingston Park.
Fellow England star Mike Tindall, who plays for Gloucester, was also stretchered from the field with a suspected broken leg.
