Hull FC's Cameron Scott on long road to Super League success

At 23, Hull FC’s Cameron Scott believes he’s finally arrived as a Super League player.

The athletic centre scored his first try in almost a year in Friday's 22-18 win at Leeds. An ankle injury and then an abductor tear meant he made just seven top-flight appearances last term. Scott was one of the most promising youngsters in his peer group, captaining England Academy to a memorable Test series defeat of Australia Schoolboys in 2018.

Other players from that squad have risen quickly to the top, including St Helens’ England star Jack Welsby, Leeds centre Harry Newman and Wigan’s Challenge Cup winning scrum-half Harry Smith. Scott, though, had to bide his time, including going on loan spells at Doncaster, York and Leigh. But with Hull captain Carlos Tuimavave sidelined, he’s started both their opening fixtures under new boss Tony Smith this term having also featured in the win against Castleford.
