Price gives positive injury update

Warrington Wolves Head Coach Steve Price expects Stefan Ratchford and Daryl Clark to be fit to face Huddersfield Giants on Monday night.

Ratchford picked up a groin injury in the warm-up of last week’s Challenge Cup win over Catalans Dragons, while Clark picked up a peck injury in the game.

Price said after the game that both would be sent for scans, but they have both taken part in training this week.

He said: “They’re both good. They both took part in training today and had a good hit out. We expect them to be right by Monday.”

Meanwhile, he also confirmed he expects Matty Ashton to be back in 10-12 weeks after having surgery on the ankle injury he picked up against Hull KR.

He added: “It’s unfortunate. He copped a bad one last year with hamstring and his ankle now at the beginning of the year.

“He’s a pretty good healer, and he’s only young at 22. We are confident it will only be a 10-12 week return. I am also confident we can cover all bases.”
