WARRINGTON Wolves hope to have Simon Grix back in action within a month, with a return to full training expected in the next couple of weeks.
Grix had a shoulder reconstruction in January and Darbyshire said: "He's probably another couple of weeks away from being given the all-clear to get stuck into some contact, which he obviously needs to do before he plays.
"If he comes through that all right he can start to play."
Grix is considered to be number three in the half-back pecking order and deputy to Vinnie Anderson at loose forward.
