Huddersfield half-back Clune out for season

Adam Clune joined Huddersfield on a three-year deal from Newcastle Knights in 2023

Huddersfield Giants half-back Adam Clune has been ruled out for the rest of the season because of a hamstring injury.

Injuries had already restricted the 30-year-old Australian to six Super League appearances this year and he will now miss the rest of the campaign with an issue picked up in last week's defeat by Wigan.

"He's had a torrid time," head coach Luke Robinson told BBC Radio Leeds.

"He's one of our key signings and he's only managed to play six games this year. It's been really disappointing for him and us."

Robinson added: "The prognosis is three to four months, which is devastating from a personal perspective and for us as well."

The Giants, who have won just once in the league this season, brought in Leeds Rhinos half-back Matt Frawley on a one-month loan earlier this week.
