Hull FC captain Lee Radford is optimistic

2 months ago 03rd Sep 10:17

Despite Hull's position in the league table this season, their appearance at Wembley was actually their third appearance in a major final in four seasons.

Lee Radford said there was sufficient talent in the playing ranks.

Scrum-half Richard Horne recovered from a career-threatening neck injury to return on the bench at Wembley, even though he had lost more than 20lbs during his recuperation period.

Hull went into the Challenge Cup final as huge underdogs, but they produced a brave performance to lead 12-10 in the second half before St Helens pulled away in the final quarter.
