Hull FC forward Brad Fash is set for several weeks on the treatment table after suffering a broken jaw in their defeat to St Helens.

The 22-year-old picked up the injury in Friday night’s 26-12 defeat to Super League table toppers St Helens and left the field in the first half.

Fash is set to undergo surgery and will be out of action for several weeks.

Fetuli Talanoa is in Hull FC’s squad for Thursday’s clash against Widnes Vikings, with the winger leaving the field against Saints with a dead calf.

Back-row pair Sika Manu, Mark Minichiello and Dean Hadley remains on the treatment table with a knee injury.
