HULL FC have been rocked by a devastating blow to Herman Ese’ese.
The powerful forward is expected to be out for six to eight months after suffering a ruptured Achilles during the Black and Whites’ 34-0 loss to Leeds Rhinos last weekend.
Ese’ese will undergo surgery later this week and begin his rehabilitation.
The former Dolphins prop has enjoyed a stellar season in 2025, scoring eight tries and becoming a cornerstone of John Cartwright’s pack.
Along with his brilliant try-scoring record, Ese’ese has also made nine clean breaks, 42 offloads and a gargantuan 130 tackle busts.
