Edinburgh and Scotland forward Ally Hogg will miss the Six Nations tournament after being told he needs surgery on an injured hip that will keep him out of action for the rest of this season.
Hogg, 26, received the diagnosis in the wake of Edinburgh's European Cup defeat at Bath on Sunday and club coach Rob Moffat confirmed that surgery would go ahead as soon as possible.
"Ally has suffered a tear in a muscle in his hip and requires an operation," Moffat said. "It means he will be out of action for six months and so will not be available for selection for the Six Nations."
Hogg has played 48 times for his country but did not feature in the autumn internationals against Australia, Fiji and Argentina, despite former Edinburgh coach Andy Robinson now being in charge of the national team.
