Overseas star returns to Wakefield Trinity's 21-man squad as Warrington Wolves make 6 changes
Wakefield Trinity could have one of their big men back in business when they play host to Warrington Wolves on Saturday.
Coach Daryl Powell has made just one change to his 21-man squad following last week’s defeat of York Knights with late-season recruit Emre Guler replacing Myles Lawford.
Guler, who joined Trinity from St George-Illawarra Dragons last month and made his debut against Wigan Warriors two weeks ago, has recovered from a minor groin problem. Tom Johnstone, Isaiah Vagana and Jordan Williams all retain their place in the preliminary group after not featuring last week.
Ex-Trinity forward Kelepi Tanginoa is back in contention for Warrington along with Cai Taylor-Wray, Luke Yates, Josh Smith, Ben Hartill and Charlie McKler. Sam Powell is suspended following a high tackle in last week’s win at Hull FC. Others dropping out are former Wakefield man Jordy Crowther, Ewan Irwin, Luke Thomas, Joe Philbin and Arron Lindop.
This weekend’s game will be shown live on BBC 2 and refereed by Aaron Moore.
Trinity’s initial squad is: Max Jowitt, Cameron Scott, Corey Hall, Tom Johnstone, Jake Trueman, Mason Lino, Mike McMeeken, Tyson Smoothy, Ky Rodwell, Jazz Tevaga, Jay Pitts, Caleb Hamlin-Uele, Caius Faatili, Harvey Smith, Isaiah Vagana, Lachlan Walmsley, Jack Sinfield, Jayden Myers, Jordan Williams, Zac Lipowicz, Emre Guler.
Warrington’s 21 is: Cai Taylor-Wray, Josh Thewlis, Toby King, Albert Hopoate, Matty Ashton, George Williams, Luke Yates, Danny Walker, James Harrison, Adam Holroyd, Sam Stone, Ben Currie, Liam Byrne, Leon Hayes, James Bentley, Max Wood, Josh Smith, Ben Hartill, Kelepi Tanginoa, Lachlan Webster, Charlie McKler.
