Nasty injury for Ethan Ryan following late Hull KR defeat

On what was a night to forget for Willie Peter’s side, there was more to be concerned about for full-back Ethan Ryan.

In the closing stages in the first half of Golden Point, Bevan French broke the line and burst through to set Liam Farrell up for his hat-trick.

And whilst the Warriors players wheeled away in celebration, there was plenty of concern for the KR full-back who looked in a bad way.

Whilst the nature of the collision is unclear, the initial diagnosis from Head Coach Willie Peters wasn’t a good one during his post-match press conference.

Peters said: “It’s not good. The initial diagnosis is that he’s broken his jaw. But we’ll have to see.”

It’ll be a tough one to take for the full-back after his side did so well to get themselves back into the content to allow the game to slip away in the final seconds of the game.

But with Ryan looking set for a lengthy spell on the sideline, it’ll be another selection headache for Willie Peters when his side face Salford Red Devils in the opener of Magic Weekend next week.
