Lynagh released from hospital
FORMER Australia and Saracens star Michael Lynagh has been discharged from hospital as he continues his recovery from a stroke.
Lynagh was admitted to intensive care a fortnight ago in Brisbane where it was discovered he had suffered a blocked vertebral artery.
The 48-year-old wrote on Twitter yesterday: “Almost exactly two weeks after my stroke, I have been released from hospital. A long way to go, but a big step in the right direction.”
The 1991 World Cup winner spent two seasons at Saracens, helping them to win the Tetley’s Bitter Cup, before retiring in 1998.
Lynagh remains based in Britain, where he works in advertising and as a television pundit.
