On loan Ellis Longstaff instantly felt at home on his dream Hull debut - and it's no surprise.
The second-row scored twice in just three minutes during Sunday’s thrilling 34-28 Magic Weekend win against Hull KR. Longstaff, 20, had only joined from Warrington on an emergency loan a few days earlier. St Helens winger Josh Simm and Leeds full-back Jack Walker also impressed after arriving on similar deals for depleted FC.
Longstaff said: “It’s a bit unusual, three loanees debuting together. But the Hull boys made us feel so welcome. It was really nice for us all to play. Simmo got over the whitewash and Jack got man of the match. Everybody just slotted in. It just felt like home and like we’d all been playing together for years.”
