STEVE Price the chances of all four of his Challenge Cup Final injury doubts are “looking positive.”
Blake Austin (ankle), Jack Hughes (ruptured testicle), Josh Charnley (knee) were already doubts for the clash with St Helens at Wembley Stadium and they were joined by full-back Stefan Ratchford, who suffered a lower leg injury in the defeat to Wigan on Friday.
While not giving too much away, Price appeared optimistic about the chances of all four and said he will give them up until Friday’s captain’s run to prove their fitness.
“With Blake Austin, Jack Hughes and Josh Charnley, I’ll give them until the later stages of the week,” he said.
“Official training starts tomorrow so until then, there isn’t really too much to say but it’s looking positive.
“Stef copped a couple of knocks in the game the other night but I’m confident he’ll be right.
“If they’re not right for captain’s run, we’ll have to look at other options.”
