LEEDS RHINOS’ Harry Newman has shared the brutal photo of his nasty lip injury sustained in the 26-6 win over Castleford Tigers last night.
Newman, who left the field midway through the first-half for a HIA, passed the concussion test before sitting out the rest of the game with a horrendous lip issue.
The injury required the England international to head to hospital after the game for a number of stitches.
And now the results of the lip injury have been shared by Newman himself, with the caption: “RL wins again.”
Following the game, Leeds head coach Rohan Smith said: “We lost Harry Newman early on and then we lost James Bentley in the first-half. We lost a back-rower and centre in the first-half which was unusual.
“Newman passed his HIA but he has got a nasty split to his lip which will need a fair few stitches when he gets to hospital. Hopefully there’s nothing structurally wrong but we will find out once he goes.”
