Simon Grix has named his 21-man squad ahead of Friday’s Betfred Super League Round 10 fixture with Warrington Wolves, in association with Jadan Press.
With just over a third of the season played, Hull FC will make their second visit of the year to the Halliwell Jones Stadium, looking to avenge their Round Two defeat there, when the Black & Whites battled valiantly with 12-men.

There was another gritty showing from Hull against Leeds on Sunday afternoon, but they were kept waiting for their first win in almost two months as they went down to a narrow defeat in a tense battle.

This Friday, Grix will take charge of his third game as Interim Coach of the Black & Whites, and he has made three changes to his 21-man squad for the trip across the Pennines.

Jake Trueman could make a first appearance in over eight months after recovering from an Achilles injury suffered in the latter stages of Hull’s 2023 campaign.

Over a decade since his last outing in a Black & White shirt, Tom Briscoe could be on the cusp of making his second debut for the club.

The experienced outside back signed on a permanent deal last week, and he has now overcome a calf injury sustained whilst playing for Leigh Leopards earlier in the season.

And Cam Scott also features in this week’s 21-man squad, having missed the visit of the Rhinos last weekend through the HIA protocols.

Jayden Okunbor, Zach Jebson and Matty Laidlaw make way in the squad this week.

Carlos Tuimavave (hamstring), Brad Fash (ankle), Jack Ashworth (thumb), Mitieli Vulikijapani (knee), Nick Staveley (knee) and Cobie Wainhouse (knee) all remain sidelined for Hull.

Scott Lane Cator in the back row is without doubt the smallest in Sl.
Halfback Charles & Smith.
There’s no wonder we get dominated every game. Houghton or Balmforth at 9 wouldn’t make much difference when teams are running over the top of us.
I’m not fussed on Jack brown or George king either.
We’ve made a statement signing in Asiata
Maybe I’m been naive but I don’t think he’d have signed if he hadnt been assured other quality players are coming in..

One of the things that bugs me with Houghton, that he did on a couple of occasions last night, is that when he scoots he picks up the first 10 metres then randomly turns 90 degrees and starts running sideways, then passes the ball 10 metres back again to the first receiver. That means we're right back at the advantage line anyway, and lost any momentum Houghton gained from his initial scoot.
He's lost all the speed to be able to break through behind the ruck but he's still better off just taking the tackle and getting a quick play the ball while the defence is still retreating.
I know you can argue that the rest of the team should be pushing up with him (and yes, they should) but sometimes they're not, so don't try and force the pass to somebody, just take the metres he's already earned and play the ball.

If what I'm seeing is correct, Pele is playing again today for the reserves?
Obviously trying to hammer some fitness into him if so.

Just seen that, thought it was a typo? He should be absolutely tearing reserves teams to pieces if he is actually playing. Good to see Armstrong back playing too

7 tackles,4 carries for 30 meters. I’m sure he’s got energy left
