HULL KR have confirmed a major blow to star centre Oliver Gildart.
The former Wigan Warriors centre withdrew from the first-team squad ahead of last week’s fixture against St Helens due to injury.
Now the prognosis has been revealed: Gildart will require surgery on his knee which will see him miss the next six weeks of rugby league action.
It also means that the 27-year-old will miss Rovers’ Challenge Cup semi-final clash against his former side Wigan in over a week’s time.
