GUTTED Michael Lawrence is hoping to finally get a consistent Super League run with the Giants.

The 20-year-old yesterday made his 50th senior appearance for his hometown club at Warrington, coming in to replace the injured Paul Whatuira.

But the story of the former Newsome Panthers’ season so far has been stop-start, with an ankle injury and dislocated finger halting his top-flight charge.
