Sam Tomkins provides injury update ahead of Leeds Rhinos' trip to face Catalans Dragons

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.
