Bongi Mbonambi will miss the Vodacom Blue Bulls match against the MTN Golden Lions on Saturday after injuring a knee in last weekend’s Absa Currie Cup clash with Western Province.

Mbonambi will be out of action for two weeks after a small ligament tear to the knee, team doctor Org Strauss confirmed.

Prop Mornè Mellett has been declared fit, following a neck spasm and will train on Monday, as will winger Travis Ismaiel.

Grant Hattingh, Francois Venter and Ulrich Beyers will not train Monday due to minor ailments, but will be fit for selection.

Jean Cook (thumb, two weeks), Callie Visagie (ankle, three weeks) and Courtnall Skosan (quad, 4 weeks), could all still play in the competition later in the season.

The long term injury list is:

Basil Short (knee, 4 months), Francois Hougaard (ankle, 4 months), Cornell Hess (knee, 5 weeks), Deon Stegmann (shoulder, 4 months), Arno Botha (knee, 3 months), Pierre Spies (bicep, three months), Louis Fouchè (knee, 3 months).

Springbok winger Bjorn Basson has also been released for Currie Cup duty this weekend and will be available for selection against the Golden Lions.
