Injury Corner: Castleford Tigers concerned over duo as Leeds Rhinos and Warrington Wolves suffer blows

The amount of injuries being suffered in rugby league in recent times is quite harrowing.

A significant amount of muscle tissue problems as well as more longer-term issues such as MCLs and ACLs are becoming more common.

Therefore, we thought it would be a good idea to note which stars succumbed to injuries in the round of fixtures just gone.

Thursday’s game saw Warrington Wolves thrash Castleford Tigers, with Leeds Rhinos falling short at in-form Wigan Warriors on Friday.

St Helens hammered Hull FC on Saturday dinnertime whilst Huddersfield Giants looked impressive in their victory over Hull KR later in the day.

Catalans Dragons just about overcame Wakefield Trinity to round off Saturday’s games with Salford Red Devils emphatically beating Toulouse Olympique this afternoon.
