The Johannesburg outfit’s head coach Johan Ackermann revealed that fly-half Jantjies dislocated a finger and full-back Van der Walt is battling a knee injury.
“Elton has a hand injury but we cant say until he has done the scan,” Ackermann told Supersport.
The Lions are waiting on the results of a scan before they will know how serious Van der Walt’s injury is.
“Jaco knee injury we hope and believe it will not be too long,” he added.
“Jaco was exceptional in that first half, he created a lot of line breaks for us in that first half and his kicking was exceptional. He kicked balls out from his own 22 to the halfway line.
“It will definitely be a setback. He is in a sense a lot like Boeboes (Andries Coetzee), he is strong in his decision-making so it will be a loss.
“As long as we can get him back within this campaign it will be great. If we can get some news that he isn’t out for long on Monday we will be very happy.
“He was exceptional when he played.”
