HUDDERSFIELD GIANTS have been hit with a major injury blow to in-form centre Esan Marsters.
Marsters, who will be joining the Salford Red Devils from 2025 on a three-year deal, suffered a knee injury in Huddersfield’s 22-18 loss to Catalans Dragons just before the international break.
Now, Huddersfield head coach Ian Watson has confirmed that the Cook Islands international will be out for around two months in a big blow for the Giants.
“Esan is out for a fair while,” Watson said.
“It could be up to eight weeks but it depends on how it heals as he is in a brace at the minute so we’ll see what happens.
“He’s done a meniscus and MCL-type injury. He did it in the game and tried to continue on as we were getting in the flow in the second-half (against Catalans).
“He tried to push through it but he got a knock and he couldn’t get back up from that.”
Ash Golding and Sam Hewitt will also miss Huddersfield’s trip to the Warrington Wolves tomorrow night with injury.
