Giantsrl.com can confirm that Huddersfield Giants star Danny Brough will be missing for a period of eight weeks after scans revealed that he had suffered ankle ligament damage following a second half injury in the claret and gold's 40-18 victory over Castleford Tigers at The Shay on Sunday.

Nathan Brown and the Giants coaching staff are also waiting on the result of a scan on full-back Scott Grix who also left the field in the second half against Castleford for a period of time.
