FOLLOWING news of injuries to three players set to feature, Warrington Wolves have confirmed an altered squad for tomorrow night's pre-season friendly against Widnes Vikings.
Senior players Stefan Ratchford, Rodrick Tai and Josh Thewlis were all due to start the game but head coach Sam Burgess confirmed to the media earlier today that all three had picked up injuries during this week.
There are still experienced squad members involved in the clash with the neighbours in the shape of Gil Dudson, Matty Russell and the re-signed Brad Dwyer, while new signing Max Wood will make his first Warrington appearance.
There are several youngsters with first-team experience set to be involved with Leon Hayes, Luke Thomas, Tom Whitehead, Adam Holroyd and Lucas Green all set to play a part.
However, the remaining members of the 22-player squad are yet to make their senior debuts for the club.
