The 21-man squads for Sunday’s fixtures in Round 12 of the Super League have been confirmed. London Broncos will host Hull KR, with the Broncos aiming to build on their first victory of the season, having defeated Hull FC in their previous outing. KR will be eager to bounce back from their heavy defeat in the Challenge Cup semi-final.
In the other Sunday encounter, Salford Red Devils will welcome Wigan Warriors. The Red Devils, currently sixth in the Super League table, have the chance to close the gap on the top four with a win against the league leaders. Wigan are currently top of the standings, tied on 16 points with three other sides, but have a game in hand over their rivals.
London Broncos vs Hull KR
London Broncos have included two new signings in their squad, with French international Ugo Tison joining from Catalans Dragons on a permanent deal until the end of the season, and Jacob Jones’ loan from Leigh Leopards being extended. Harvey Makin has returned to Wigan following the conclusion of his loan spell, while Jack Hughes and Matt Davies come into the Broncos’ squad, with James Meadows ruled out through injury.
For Hull KR, Danny Richardson is set to make his debut after joining from Castleford Tigers, while Connor Barley is also included in the squad for the first time this season. Jack Broadbent and Jack Brown return to the KR lineup, but Joe Burgess, Louix Gorman and Leo Tennison are all missing.
Salford Red Devils vs Wigan Warriors
Salford have named a strong squad for their clash with Wigan, with recent signing Harvey Wilson in line to make his debut. Shane Wright, Jake Shorrocks, Gil Dudson and Joe Mellor have all recovered from injuries and are back in contention for the Red Devils. However, Cade Cust, Jack Ormondroyd, Ben Hellewell and Adam Sidlow are unavailable due to knocks.
Wigan have been weakened by suspensions, with Kaide Ellis and Sam Walters both receiving one-match bans following the Challenge Cup semi-final against KR. Sam Eseh, who recently spent time on loan at Castleford Tigers, has been included in the Warriors’ 21-man squad, while young hooker Tom Forber also makes the cut after a loan spell at Barrow Raiders.
