Vodacom Bulls centre Johan Sadie will be out of action for two to three weeks after he was injured early in the first half of the Bulls SuperRugby opener against the Sharks at Loftus on Friday.

Sadie left the field about 13minutes into the first half with what looked like a shoulder injury. Bulls doctor Org Strauss confirmed today that Sadie had suffered a grade one tear of the AC joint and recovery should take two to three weeks.

Along with the bad news about Sadie the Bulls also received the good news that Wynand Olivier is fit and ready to go after injuring his hand in pre-season training.

Dr Strauss also confirmed that both Morne Mellet and Arno Botha should be ready within three weeks.
