Dorn set for two months out

Correspondent

Castleford fullback Luke Dorn may be out of action until May as he recovers from a hamstring tear.

Dorn injured his hamstring in the Tigers’ loss to Salford on March 13.

Love Rugby League understands that the Australian could be facing eight weeks on the sidelines, with the injury worse than first expected, which is a blow for struggling Castleford.

The earliest Dorn could be back may be against St Helens in round 13, but more likely to be the following weekend against Leeds Rhinos.

The Tigers have a large injury count at the moment with a number of key players unavailable.
