St Helens prop Alex Walmsley has been ruled out for the rest of 2022, meaning he will not play for England in the end of year World Cup.

The 32-year-old, who was named in the 2022 Super League Dream Team, sustained a foot injury in their 30-10 defeat to Wigan three weeks ago and left the DW Stadium in a brace.

Yes although I think his form has dipped this season.

Never mind, it'll add to the commentators repertoire of excuses when Saints lose.

I think so too. Alex is just a big push & thrust player without the skill that Faz has 😊

Horrible to say this about any pro, but I don't see him lasting too much longer in the game. He seems to have legs made of biscuits lately

Who are England's main props, then? Tom Burgess? Oledzki?
