All Blacks coach Graham Henry spoke to ONE Sport about All Black lock Ali Williams' latest injury setback.
Earlier on Saturday Henry had spoken to medical staff about the achilles injury said that things might not be as bad as first thought.
Williams has suffered a complete rupture of the achilles tendon which kept him out of much of the 2009 season.
However Henry believes that the latest injury, although devastating for Williams, is not as bad as what happened last year.
"They (All Black doctors) think a complete rupture of the tendon is better than a partial tear. The medical people tell me that's easier to deal with than what happened last year," Henry told ONE Sport.
"He's getting operated on Monday and there's a recovery time of around about six months give or take a week here or a week there," Henry said.
