Watch the full match replay as our academy took on Hull FC away from home in their seventh round of the season.
It was our first game under the new trial rules for the RFL, which are as follows: The legal tackle height will be reduced to below the armpit at initial contact, with penalisation for contact on the head and neck at any point; while kick-offs will now be taken from 10 metres further forward – on the opposition’s 40-metre line, rather than the halfway line at present – to reduce the impact of ensuing collisions.
See how we lined up below:
