Hull FC (10) 10


Tries: Martin 2 Goals: Hardaker


Wakefield Trinity fought to a hard-fought Super League win over injury-hit Hull FC.


The groups went in level at the break with Lewis Martin's double for the away side matched by ratings by Will Tate and Oliver Pratt.


Tate's second put the hosts in front for the first time after team-mate Jack Sinfield had actually seen a try dismissed for blockage.


The Black and Whites did not threaten the Trinity try-line afterwards and have actually now lost their last three Super League video games this season, having won the opener versus Bradford Bulls.


Wakefield made it two wins and two beats for the campaign.


Tate shines as Hull's struggles continue


Hull FC had full-back Will Pryce ruled out for the season last week, Liam Knight went back to Australia at the weekend after being permitted to leave on thoughtful premises and it has been reported that back-rower Jed Cartwright might now be out for 5 months with a .


In an even begin Martin got the visitors on the scoreboard with a try out the left edge before Tate crossed for his very first.


Ill-discipline from Trinity skipper Mike McMeeken gave Hull FC good field position and Martin dotted down in comparable fashion for his 2nd try.


It appeared like that would be enough for the away side to lead at the break however Davy Litten failed to handle a high kick on the last play of the half and Pratt took the loose ball up to send out the groups in level.


Sinfield had a first rating for his brand-new side eliminated for an obstruction however Tate soon crossed for what proved to be the winning score after quick hands from Corey Hall put him over in the corner.


There was still over 20 minutes to play however Hull barely even crossed the midway line let alone put pressure on the home try-line.


Wakefield face Leeds Rhinos in the Challenge Cup next Friday, while Hull FC also deal with a Super League opponent when they take a trip to Leigh a week on Saturday.

Interchanges: Scott, Pitts, Hamlin-Uele, Faatili.


Hull FC: Litten; Briscoe, Hardaker, Romano, Martin; Arthur, Sezer; Aydin, Bourouh, Hill, Fash, Bailey, Asiata.
