FORWARD Ben Westwood returns to the Warrington squad following his one match suspension for Sunday’s trip to Hull KR and is just one try from notching his 100th try in primrose and blue.
The Wolves’ last visit to Craven Park saw Hull KR snatch victory 23-22 so Warrington will be looking to right some wrongs from that outing and maintain their unbeaten run so far this season.
Ahead of Sunday’s trip head of coaching and rugby Tony Smith said: “They’ll be smarting, Hull KR, after last weekend. They are a dangerous team with plenty of try scoring ability. We’ll have to be right on our best defence as well as hopefully put on some good attack. They’ve got plenty of threats across the park. They’ve got a big pack of
forwards and some talented halfbacks and outside backs. There are a lot of dangers, you only have to go and look at their point scoring tally to see how dangerous they are. We’ll have to take care of a number of players; we’ll have to be good right across the board.”
Rhys Williams has been drafted into the squad after being recalled from Salford following a stomach injury to leading try scorer Joel Monaghan.
