Sam Tomkins says there’s no chance he’s missing out on their crunch game against Leeds Rhinos. The England captain has declared himself fit for Friday’s sudden-death play-off in Perpignan.
He injured his knee in the recent win against Toulouse meaning he missed the following fixture against Leeds and - like so many Dragons - also sat out Friday’s heavy loss at Wigan. Due to earlier injuries, full-back Tomkins didn’t feature in last month’s trip to Wakefield either or the home defeat to Salford but he maintains he’s ready to go now.
Tomkins, 33, said: “I’m well. It was just old age, I think. I’ve had a couple of bumps and bangs picked up over the years so we found a good opportunity to rest up before the important games.
