Wrist op for Cusack

Hull prop Peter Cusack may not play again this season after undergoing a wrist re-construction.

The 32-year-old Australian dislocated the wrist during Saturday's 18-16 defeat by Warrington, had the operation on Tuesday and has been told he will be out for between three-and-a-half and four months.

Hull coach Richard Agar said: "It is a real blow for us, especially as Peter is such a consistent performer for us."

Cusack led the side against Warrington in the absence of injured skipper Lee Radford.

Stand-off Danny Washbrook, who was also injured against the Wolves, is to see a specialist in Wrexham on Friday after an MRI scan revealed he had sustained knee ligament damage.
