Wild has been capped twice by Great Britain

Huddersfield Giants will be without centre Stephen Wild for six-to-eight weeks with a knee injury.

Scans have revealed that Wild sustained cruciate ligament damage during Sunday's 24-6 defeat by St Helens at the Galpharm Stadium.

The 28-year-old former Wigan and Great Britain player is likely to be replaced against Catalans Dragons on Friday by Graeme Horne.

Keith Mason and Leroy Cudjoe are also in line for a return to action.

Mason has been out since tearing a pectoral muscle in the first few minutes of Huddersfield's opening match of the season against Bradford, while Cudjoe was rested against Saints.
