Invaluable asset hailed as Hull coach reflects on massive win at Leigh

JOHN Cartwright has praised the efforts of his Hull FC forward pack after victory at Leigh Leopards on Thursday night and has explained the strategic selection of one of his interchanges.

The Black and Whites' middles had to put in a huge shift after injuries to Cade Cust and John Asiata, with Liam Knight going for over 70 minutes of the 26-12 victory.

Sam Eseh also stepped up with another strong account. The on-loan Wigan forward has risen in stature in recent weeks and has upped the ante every week.

Similarly, Herman Ese’ese was his ‘normal’ self, scoring another try, while Matty Laidlaw came in strong, with Carwright explaining the strategic minutes played in both the reserves league and at Doncaster in recent weeks - with the 21-year-old coming into the side well at Leigh Sports Village.
