Brett Hodgson has named his 21-man squad ahead of Saturday’s Betfred Super League Round 17 clash against Leeds Rhinos, brought to you in association with Jadan Press.
Hull return to the MKM Stadium for their first fixture on home turf in six weeks, and while looking to return to winning ways after defeat on the road to Catalans and Warrington in recent weeks, FC are hoping to make it seven home wins in a row.
Hodgson has been forced into several changes from the side that took on the Wolves, with Adam Swift, Luke Gale, and Manu Ma’u all dropping out through injury, while Mitieli Vulikijapani is suspended and Aidan Burrell also drops out.
The five players are replaced in the squad by Jordan Johnstone and a quartet of Rising Stars in Harvey Barron, Charlie Severs, Denive Balmforth, and Matty Laidlaw – the latter of whom is named in a 21-man squad for the very first time having moved up to the Rising Stars group last month.
Hull remain without Ben McNamara (back), as well as long-term absentees Joe Cator (Achilles), Andre Savelio (ACL) and Jake Connor (MCL).
