Newport County defender Byron Anthony has played his first game since suffering a double leg break in August.

Anthony played 70 minutes for County's development side in a 3-2 win at Bristol Rovers.

The 29-year-old suffered his injury in the Exile's shock League Cup win at Brighton.

Meanwhile, striker Aaron O'Connor, who has yet to play this season, has had a hernia operation and is likely to be sidelined for another two to six weeks.
