Last Updated: 22/03/15 6:13pm
Huddersfield Giants coach Paul Anderson has made two changes to his 19-man squad for Sunday’s First Utility Super League trip to Wakefield Wildcats.
Jodie Broughton and Anthony Mullaly return to the squad for the Rapid Solicitors Stadium contest, replacing Jake Connor and Jack Hughes as the Giants look to build on back-to-back home victories over Widnes and Castleford.
After a positive start to the season, Wakefield have suffered three successive defeats, the latest a 24-18 reverse at Salford last Sunday.
The Wildcats give a debut to centre Joe Arundel, who replaces the injured Reece Lyne, and has also named loan signings George Griffin and Jordan Hand in his 19-man squad, with at least one of them expected to play in place of the injured Lopini Paea.
Jarrod Sammut returns from a dual-registration stint at London Broncos, with Pita Godinet, Lopini Paea and Reece Lyne all sidelined with knocks.
Wakefield Wildcats: Joe Arundel, Dean Collis, Jordan Crowther, George Griffin, Craig Hall, Jordan Hand, Danny Kirmond, Ali Lauitiiti, Paul McShane, Jacob Miller, Richard Owen, Chris Riley, Matt Ryan, Jarrod Sammut, Nick Scruton, Mickael Simon, Daniel Smith, Tim Smith, Danny Washbrook.
Huddersfield Giants: Chris Bailey, Danny Brough, Jodie Broughton, Eorl Crabtree, Leroy Cudjoe, Jamie Ellis, Brett Ferres, Scott Grix, Craig Huby, Josh Johnson, Craig Kopczak, Michael Lawrence, Jermaine McGillvary, Anthony Mullally, Aaron Murphy, Luke Robinson, Ukuma Ta’ai, Joe Wardle, Kyle Wood.
