Lowe replaced by May in England squad 0

Posted on June 17, 2012 by Ken

England wing George Lowe has been replaced by Gloucester’s Jonny May for the final week of their South African tour, team management announced on Saturday.

“May flew overnight as a replacement for George Lowe (Harlequins) who will return home tonight for further consultation after a scan showed left ankle ligament damage.” the statement said.

Lowe was injured during the midweek game against the Southern Barbarians in Kimberley after his foot was trapped in an awkward position by a tackle.

The 22-year-old May is uncapped by England.

“It’s a shame for George because he had a good game against the Southern Barbarians until he was injured. But this is an opportunity for another young player who has come up through our age-grade programme and into the Saxons to gain some valuable international tour experience,” England head coach Stuart Lancaster said.

    Philippians 2:13 – “For it is God who works in you to will [to make you want to] and to act according to his good purpose.”

    When you realise that God is at work within you, and are determined to obey him in all things, God becomes your partner in the art of living. Incredible things start to happen in your life. Obstacles either vanish, or you approach them with strength and wisdom from God. New prospects open in your life, extending your vision. You are filled with inspiration that unfolds more clearly as you move forward, holding God’s hand.” – Solly Ozrovech, A Shelter From The Storm

    But not living your life according to God’s will leads to frustration as you go down blind alleys in your own strength, more conscious of your failures than your victories. You will have to force every door open and few things seem to work out well for you.
