Injury report: Fifita, Verrills sidelined after Dragons derby

Jojo Fifita and Sam Verrills will both face stints on the sideline after suffering injuries at the weekend's game against the Dragons.

20-year-old Fifita has been sent for further scans after a knee complaint ruled the young flyer out of this weekend's contest against the Storm following an awkward tackle in the sixth minute.  

For Verrills, he courageously played through what has been revealed to be a fractured collarbone, which will see the gritty No. 9 missing the next few weeks due to this. This is unrelated to the stinging injury he copped when he left the field in the 49th minute.

In other injury news, Jaimin Jolliffe will miss the next 3-4 months as he recovers from a torn pec suffered in a training accident last Friday, with the forward set to go under the knife on Thursday.

Beau Fermor underwent surgery to repair his ruptured ACL last week, with the hard running forward beginning his initial steps of rehab this week.

Meanwhile, Tom Weaver is on track to return to the Hostplus Cup this weekend should he pass a final fitness test after being withdrawn from Tweed's Round 1 opener against the Capras.
