Wigan Warriors: Michael McIlorum to miss rest of year with injury

Michael McIlorum has played 220 games for the Warriors

Wigan coach Shaun Wane says Michael McIlorum will miss the rest of the year after suffering a broken ankle in the World Club Series defeat by Brisbane.

The England hooker, 28, went off on a stretcher after tackling Broncos half-back Anthony Milford.

Wane said the operation "went well" but added: "I can't see him playing again this year."

McIlorum has played 220 games for the Warriors, winning two Grand Finals and a Challenge Cup.
