RYAN Jones has given Wales an injury scare 10 days before their autumn Test series opener against Argentina.

The Ospreys back-row forward is on his way home from Wales' training camp in Poland to undergo scans on what the Welsh Rugby Union said was "an irritable shoulder’’.

Wales have already lost two of last season's Six Nations Grand Slam stars - prop Adam Jones and flanker Dan Lydiate - for the entire series that features appointments with Argentina, Samoa, New Zealand and Australia.
