 Shelley faces six weeks out after breaking his thumb |
Leeds have suffered a double injury blow with Mike Shelley and Clive Stuart-Smith both ruled out of the game against Wasps on Sunday. Tykes skipper Shelley broke his thumb in the 44-32 defeat to Bath and is out for up to six weeks while Stuart-Smith is out for up to 10 weeks after injuring his knee in the same game.
Tykes director of rugby Phil Davies said: "To lose them both, on top of Phil Murphy, Simon Halford and Tom Palmer, is a blow but we will have to re-group and prepare for Wasps.
"We will look at our options and make a decision on the squad as soon as possible and see if we have to bring in cover."
