0

WOLVES Head of Coaching Tony Smith has been forced to re-shuffle his team with injuries to a number of key players following the narrow Challenge Cup defeat for the trip to Catalans in the Super 8s.

Warrington need to win to keep the pressure on Hull at the top of the table but will have to do it without six injured players, including half backs Kurt Gidley (lacerated eye) and Chris Sandow (medial ligament strain).

Also missing are Ben Westwood (torn pectoral muscle), Daryl Clark (calf tear), Rhys Evans (hamstring) and Ryan Bailey (dead leg).

The Wolves face Catalans Dragons on Saturday, kick-off 5pm (GMT).

Both games between the Wolves and Dragons have ended in a Warrington win and the side is still on track for top spot, challenging for the Grand Final.
