Having missed the opening two Super League games against St Helens and London Broncos which saw coach Paul Anderson opting to play Luke George instead.

The 24-year-old winger however remains confident he recent displays against Wigan and Wakefield are enough to continue in the side.

He told the Huddersfield Daily Examiner: “I’ve been pretty happy with the way I’ve played in the past couple of week, so I’m hopeful I’ll have done enough.

“I think my defence was okay, and I definitely enjoyed finally showing everyone I’ve got a bit of pace in the build up to McGillvary’s second try.”
