Leigh Leopards head coach Adrian Lam will make a late call on Tom Amone before finalising his team to face Hull KR in the quarter-finals of the Challenge Cup.

The prop, who was named in the Super League Dream Team in 2023, has spent the last month on the sidelines with a foot injury.

Amone was originally expected to be out until May but he could hand the cup holders a timely boost for Saturday's tie against KR, the team Leigh beat in last year's final.

"Tom Amone comes back into consideration so we’ll give him right up until kick-off to be selected," said Lam, whose side have won just four games since lifting the cup last August. "He'll be in that 21 (man squad).

"It's just good to see Tom back around the place after the rehab that he's done.
