Edinburgh Wolves travel to Liverpool to face Merseyside Nighthawks this weekend without two of their number.

Rookie Ronnie Laver broke his leg during last weekend's 36-10 over Chester Romans at Meadowbank and is out for the season.

Jim Scott has announced he is retiring from the game after 27 years playing.

The 47 year-old scored one of the touchdowns against Chester on a one-yard run.

“Jim gave the team a rousing and emotional
half time team talk, which the guys really used to get themselves fired up,” said coach Don Edmonston.

"He was a great player and will be sadly missed, both as a coach and a friend.”
