High-flying Warrington have suffered a major injury blow after scans revealed that prop Garreth Carvell broke his leg in Sunday's 36-16 defeat at Hull KR.
The 29-year-old former Hull and Great Britain forward has been an ever-present for the Wolves this season but is now facing a three-month lay-off.
Warrington, who are second in Engage Super League after winning eight of their opening 11 matches, have also lost loose forward Vinnie Anderson with a broken toe as a result of a weight-training accident.
Carvell will be a big loss to Wire, even though he has been a thug this season.
Feel sorry for him. Played against Carvs loads of times when I was a teenager and played on his and Michael wainwright's team when I was a fair bit younger. Both nice lads and I want them to do well.

Sounds like someone dropped a 20Kg plate on his foot!
