Warriors hooker Luke out for a month
Issac Luke will be sidelined for up to a month with a knee injury in a body blow to the Warriors in the NRL.
The in-form hooker lasted just 16 minutes of the 50-10 humbling from the Melbourne Storm on Anzac Day, his darting runs from dummy-half sorely missed.
Just five days earlier he had put on arguably his finest display for the Warriors in their 20-12 upset of St George Illawarra.
He'll miss Saturday's home match against the Wests Tigers, the veteran targeting a return for the round 12 clash with his former club, South Sydney.
Meanwhile, the club posted an injury update which suggested halfback Shaun Johnson (leg), centre Solomone Kata (ankle) and second-rower Tohu Harris (concussion) are all on track to face the Tigers.
All three missed the Storm pasting, their second loss of the season.
