TOMMY MAKINSON could make a welcome return for Catalans Dragons when they head to Hull FC on Sunday.
The former England winger has missed Catalans’ last three matches through injury but is named in Joel Tomkins’ 21-man squad.
Julian Bousquet, Josh Allen (both head) and Matthieu Laguerre (ankle) all drop out of that squad while Ugo Tison and Léo Darrélatour also come in.
Hull’s only change from the previous Sunday’s victory over Leeds Rhinos is the loss of Cade Cust to suspension, with Lennon Clark taking his place.
