The team news is in for this afternoon’s Betfred Super League Round 9 fixture against Leeds Rhinos, in association with Jadan Press.
The Black & Whites are aiming to bring to an end their recent run of poor form when they host the West Yorkshire outfit at the MKM Stadium.
Interim head coach Simon Grix has made six changes to the side that lined-up against St Helens last weekend.
Jack Walker returns from injury to start at full-back, while Ligi Sao and Jack Brown both return from suspension to start in the pack; loanees Ed Chamberlain and Yusuf Aydin come in to start at centre and on the bench respectively, while Liam Tindall also returns to start on the wing.
The six replace Davy Litten, Denive Balmforth, Matty Laidlaw, and Zach Jebson – Cam Scott drops out having failed his head injury assessment, while Darnell McIntosh has departed the club to join Leigh.
Carlos Tuimavave (hamstring), Jake Trueman (Achilles), Brad Fash (ankle), Jack Ashworth (thumb), Mitieli Vulikijapani (knee), Nick Staveley (knee), Kye Armstrong (shoulder) and Cobie Wainhouse (knee) all continue nursing their respective injuries.
