Catalan Dragons hooker Ian Henderson broke his radius (forearm) against Leeds last Friday and is set for 10-12 weeks on the sidelines.
The former Bradford and Sydney Roosters forward, 30, sustained the injury during the first half of his side’s home defeat to the Rhinos and underwent surgery soon after.
Henderson is the ninth Catalan player to be ruled out through either injury or suspension, leaving coach Laurent Frayssinous with limited options and three losses to start 2014.
