Bateman close to contact training

Raiders forward John Bateman continues to work on getting his shoulder right for the resumption of the season and is set to resume contact training within the next week.

Bateman has been training with the squad doing some skills sessions but is yet to resume contact work. Due to the shutdown, Bateman's rehab had been delayed, but he's confident he'll be close to being available for the recommencement of the season in two weeks' time.
