You'd hope so, and then it's a case of which of the props miss out.

Although I think it won’t happen, G Burgess needs to be dropped for the good of his own health. FC have some big bodies who all pack a punch. Can see a repeat of the Warrington game with BMM.

Hastings more likely to go to 9 than Tommy.

Read on one of the FB pages he's been pinged by test and trace, he's apparently fine but will have to sit this one out.

Re: Squad for Hull : Tue Nov 17, 2020 1:42 pm  

Ouch - that's a huge blow. Doesn't just mean we lose all that Powell brings but presumably means we need to break up the halfback partnership. The problem with Hastings and Smith is Hastings likes to play on the left making it difficult to make the most of Smith's kicking game.

Re: Squad for Hull : Tue Nov 17, 2020 1:42 pm  

Powell is a massive loss for this one. He's been excellent this season and his attitude sets a marker. Tommy would seem the natural replacement but I think Lam and the team value him too highly at half to move him for a knockout semi and Smith hasn't played for about a month. Tough call to make.
