Gannon out for Giants
Huddersfield prop Jim Gannon will miss the first two months of engage Super League XI after undergoing knee surgery.
The 28-year-old Australian damaged his right knee in the penultimate match of last season at Bradford.
"Jim has targeted April time for his return," said coach Jon Sharp. "Obviously, that's a big blow, because losing a first-choice prop is bound to affect a lot of your plans. But the operation was something that couldn't be avoided."
