WARRINGTON Wolves will be without full-back Matt Dufty when they visit Castleford Tigers on Friday.

The team’s leading try scorer, metre maker and Man of Steel contender is ruled out with a knee injury.

Australian Dufty picked up his injury in the first half of Saturday’s Magic Weekend win against Leeds Rhinos at Elland Road but managed to hobble his way through the game and even crossed for a hat-trick of tries.

“He’s took a bang and will see a specialist today with Nick (Murphy, club’s head physio)," said first-team coach Martin Gleeson.

“We’ll know more after that, so there’s not a lot I can say at the moment.

“I don’t think it’s too serious but we’re just getting a specialist’s opinion.

“Matt will be given his options and a timeframe, but it’s not something we’re too concerned about.

“He’ll be out this week.”
