Cartwright: There's extra motivation with where we are now

HULL STAR LOOKS FORWARD TO RETURNING PLAYERS MAKING A DIFFERENCE

- By DAN TOMLINSON

Hull FC are in a healthy position, and confidence is brewing. But most importantly, there are no signs of complacency, with the Black and Whites knowing the task ahead and determined to see it out.

They know they are set to get stronger in the coming weeks, with the likes of John Asiata and Will Pryce coming back from injury, and even now, that serves as motivation, with the current team aiming to get the club into a position to strike when they return.

Right now that task is in motion. Hull are sixth in Super League and have their destiny in their own hands. They face Huddersfield Giants next before a week off and are looking to back up last week’s win at Wigan Warriors. There's a sense that something is building - and all at the right time.
