Tuipulotu to miss three months but avoids surgery

Glasgow Warriors and Scotland centre Sione Tuipulotu will be sidelined for up to three months, club head coach Franco Smith has confirmed. "Sione’s injury is not as bad as first feared," Smith said. Jamie Dobie returns to his more recognised scrum-half role days after signing a contract extension as Warriors visit Benetton in the United Rugby Championship on Saturday, but Smith praised the player's "versatility".
