Hull FC have named their side to take on St Helens.

John Cartwright has named his Hull FC side to take on St Helens at the MKM Stadium this Thursday night. The Black and Whites will debut on-loan centre Harry Newman, with the England international on an original one-week deal from Leeds Rhinos.

Elsewhere, James Bell is named at loose-forward, while Zak Hardaker is moved to the back row – a role he had for large parts of last season. Brad Fash and Yusuf Aydin come back into the fold after head and ankle issues.

At full-back, Logan Moy keeps his place and is set for his third successive appearance. Tom Briscoe and Lewis Martin are on the wings, with Newman paired with Briscoe and Davy Litten with Martin. Cade Cust and Aidan Sezer are in the halves.

Up front, Harvie Hill and Ligi Sao are named at prop, with Amir Bourouh at hooker. Hardaker is named in the back row, with Connor Bailey getting a start once again. Bell is named at loose forward.
