Brough out for two months

Correspondent

Huddersfield half-back Danny Brough faces two months on the sidelines with an ankle ligament injury.

Brough, 28, hobbled off in the second half of Sunday’s eventful 40-18 victory over Castleford and was immediately ruled out of the England v Exiles game on Friday.

Scans revealed ankle damage, and the Giants are also sweating over the fitness of full-back Scott Grix.

Grix, 27, who recovered from concussion to feature on Sunday, spent a large part of the second half on the sidelines and is now awaiting results of a scan.
