ANDY Powell has been ruled out of Wales' RBS 6 Nations clash against Scotland at Murrayfield on Saturday.
The Wasps number eight suffered a shoulder injury during the 26-19 loss to England in Cardiff three days ago, but the Wales camp hope Powell will be back in contention to face Italy later this month.
Wing Morgan Stoddart, meanwhile, has been given extra time to prove his fitness ahead of the Scotland trip after breaking a bone in his hand against England.
