Scans have ruled prop forward Alex Walmsley out for the conclusion of the 2022 Betfred Super League season and the upcoming Rugby League World Cup.
Walmsley sustained a foot injury in the defeat to Wigan and left the stadium in a brace.
Initial scans showed a short-term injury, but subsequent results have revealed an injury with a much longer recovery period.
Walmsley will therefore not feature in Saints’ Super League run-in and will also miss out on a home World Cup with England.
Everyone at the Club wishes Alex all the best with his recovery.
