Wolves wait for big Ben

WARRINGTON coach Steve Price is feeling confident that new Tongan talisman Ben Murdoch-Masila will be available for next month’s Super League kick-off.

The former Salford Red Devils favourite and 2017 Dream Team pick has yet to arrive back in the UK, due to visa issues.

But Price said: ”It’s just a routine delay. Ben has had a couple of visa problems, but, hopefully, he will be here shortly.”

However, Price admits BMM’s fellow Tongan, Sitaleki Akauola, and Dom Crosby are doubtful for the Wolves’ home clash with champions Leeds on February 1.
