WIMBORNE will be without Jason Llewellyn for their tough EDF Energy Senior Vase third round tie at Avonmouth Old Boy's tomorrow (2.15pm).
The scrum half cut his hand during the All Blacks' 31-12 Southern Counties South win at Dorchester last Saturday and sits out the action.
Wimborne captain Dave Huggins said: "Jason had an infection in the cut and had to have surgery in midweek to clean it out.
"We're not sure how long he is going to be sidelined but he is definitely out tomorrow.
"Our options for cover are to bring in Owen Hymers, if he has recovered from an injury sustained in training, or Lloyd Wilkinson, one of our up and coming colts players."
Avonmouth are second in Western Counties North with only one defeat in eight games, so Wimborne believe they are underdogs going into the tie.
Wimborne: (from) Tinsdale, Atkins, Unwin, Worfolk, Davies, Morgan, Huggins, Hicks, Hymers, Wilkinson, Wells, King, Moxham, Roberts, Stephens, K Lynch, O'Bryan, Beavers, R Lynch.
- Oakmeadians are sweating on the fitness of fly-half Jamie Tryska ahead of their Vase home tie against Wootton Bassett (2.15pm).
He went off with a hamstring pull during the Meyrick Parkers' agonising 14-13 away league defeat last Saturday.
If Tryska is unfit, his kicking role could go to Will Croker or Hayden Hokianga.
Asked if his side could gain revenge after being beaten in the league by Wootton last week, coach James Croker said: "As long as we take our chances and have the confidence, we can do it."
Oakmeadians: (from) Osborne, Parker, Baylis, Notobartolo, Tait, Tryska, Easterbrook, Harman, Bratt, Stephenson, Riley, W Croker, Stradwick, Hennings, Flower, Hokianga, Morgan, Garrett.
