Hull FC name squad for final Derby of 2019

Hull FC head coach Lee Radford has named his 19-man-squad for Thursday’s Derby at Caravan Park.

Following on from a sensational display in Perpignan last Saturday, it’s a short turn-a-round for the Hull side, who were given Sunday off and did their recovery on Bridlington beach on Monday.

There is more positive news as Mark Minichiello returns following a minor groin injury, as does Carlos Tuimavave after a few weeks out.

In-form Marc Sneyd, Albert Kelly, Jake Connor, Josh Griffin, and Ratu Naulago are all named.

Danny Houghton has also shaken off a minor knock picked up against Catalans.

Kieran Buchanan and Danny Washbrook drop out of the squad.

On the injury front Gareth Ellis, Jordan Lane, Jack Logan, Matty Dawson-Jones and Jack Sanderson are still sidelined.

Liam Harris and Cameron Scott both played on loan for York last weekend.

Masimbaashe Matongo is on compassionate leave.
