Harlequins RL's injury problems continue to mount after it was revealed stand-off Luke Gale is set to miss at least a month with a broken jaw.

Gale came off second best in a tackle during Sunday's 16-4 win over Catalan Dragons, which saw the Quin leave the field with his mouth gushing blood.

Following the game coach Brian McDermott revealed Gale had had some lower teeth dislodged by his French opponent.

This new injury is a further blow with fellow stand-off Luke Dorn already on the sidelines with a shoulder problem.
