St Helens boss Paul Wellens provides latest on duo injured in Warrington Wolves defeat
St Helens suffered a double injury blow in their defeat to Warrington Wolves, with Alex Walmsley and Curtis Sironen picking up knocks.
The Saints were knocked out of the Challenge Cup on Sunday evening, losing 31-8 against Warrington who set up a semi-final meeting with Huddersfield Giants.
And in the game, Wellens’ men lost prop Walmsley and back-rower Sironen to hamstring and elbow injuries respectively.
Speaking in his post-match press conference, Wellens provided the latest on the pair, with Walmsley set to go for scans on his hamstring.
“We’re hoping Curtis isn’t too bad,” Wellens said. “He’s obviously got an ice pack on his elbow so we’re going to have to get that checked out.
“Big Al felt his hamstring slightly, so again, with those types of injuries, I’ve said it numerous times with hamstrings, they’re never ‘you’re going to be alright in four or five days’ so we’re going to send Alex off for a scan and get a more detailed of what’s gone on.”
