Blues halfback Piri Weepu is out of Super Rugby for at least four weeks after expert diagnosis this week determined he had recently suffered a minor stroke.

The 30-year-old had a scan on Monday after complaining of migraine-like symptoms dating back to 1st March.

Medical staff have considered the minor stroke to be a non-rugby related condition.

In this weekend’s matches, the Hurricanes will play the Crusaders at 6:35pm tomorrow while the Rebels host the Brumbies at 8:40pm.
