Exeter hopeful Feyi-Waboso ankle injury not serious

Exeter boss Rob Baxter hopes the ankle injury Immanuel Feyi-Waboso suffered while playing for England will not be too serious.

The 23-year-old was forced off at half-time of Sunday's 45-22 Nations Championship win over Australia at Twickenham.

It has ended his involvement with England over the rest of the autumn international period, but he could figure for Exeter again before the end of the year.

Feyi-Waboso will meet with a surgeon on Thursday to review scans on the injury before a detailed recovery plan is devised.

"The balance of opinion at the moment, both from ourselves and England, is that he's unlikely to require an operation," Baxter told BBC Sport.
