Hull FC will be without Aidan Sezer against Leeds Rhinos this Friday night, with the captain and half-back ruled out of the clash due to a foot injury. That means that the 35-year-old has likely played his final game for the club, with the Aussie widely reported to be moving on at the end of the season.

Sezer is one of four changes to the Hull side, who will round off their 2026 season at Headingley. There were already without forward duo Ligi Sao (HIA) and Sam Lisone (personal reasons), with Amir Bourouh not making the matchday squad. His Hull career is also now over, with the hooker playing his final game at Toulouse last week after battling an illness leading up to the game.

In come Tom Briscoe, who will play the final game of his professional career, and in doing so, make his 400th Super League appearance. Zak Hardaker also returns, earning a bench spot in what will also be his farewell to Hull before joining York next season. James Bell and Hugo Salabio, also playing his final game, make the matchday 17.

At full-back, Logan Moy starts once again, with Harvey Barron and Lewis Martin on the wings. Another player bidding farewell to Hull, Davy Litten, is named at centre, with Briscoe completing the three-quarter line. Connor Bailey partners Jake Arthur in the halves. Up front, Herman Ese’ese and Harvie Hill start at prop with Lloyd Kemp at hooker. Arthur Romano and Ethan O’Neill, returning to his former club for the first time, are in the back row spots, with James Bell at loose-forward.

Hardaker and Salabio are joined on the bench by Matty Laidlaw and Lennon Clark. Will Hutchinson is the 18th man.
