Tweeps have further provided an 'injury update' that states: "Wallabies physio has cleared Nic White of any serious injury, they thought it may have been a Grade 3 slap but it was downgraded to a Grade 0.01 slap but in good news his moustache stayed on and remains in good spirits and there will be no judicial hearing for Faf."
