Lewis Murphy scored a hat-trick of tries as Wakefield defeated Hull 26-18 at the MKM Stadium to all-but secure their Super League survival.
A drop goal from Jack Welsby in golden point extra-time secured a 13-12 win for champions St Helens against rock-bottom Wakefield.
Brett Hodgson has explained the reasoning behind Jamie Shaul's loan move to Wakefield Trinity, indicating that a lack of opportunity at Hull FC was the catalyst for the decision. The 30-year-old will spend the rest of the 2022 season at the Super League strugglers.
Hull FC have confirmed that Jamie Shaul has joined Wakefield Trinity on loan for the rest of the season, following on from Hull Live's stories on Tuesday and Thursday.
Wakefield Trinity are in the driving seat to land Jamie Shaul for the remainder of the season. Rugby League Live understands the Super League strugglers are the club currently in the box seat for the fullback with the West Yorkshire club closing in on a deal that will see the Hull FC man arrive for the remainder of the season.
Hull FC have named Jake Connor in their 21-man-squad for Friday's Super League match against Castleford Tigers. The fullback went down with a knee injury at Wakefield Trinity seven weeks ago, but despite an original 10-12 week recovery period, Connor is fit enough to return for the big clash.
Clubs have just a matter of days to do any business before the end of the season with the transfer deadline for the current season set for July 22nd. After Friday, clubs will no longer be able to bring in players on loan or permanently for the current season, meaning they will have to run with what they've got for the closing two months of the year.
Hull Live understands Will Smith, not that one, is keen on a move to Super League. The 30-year-old rugby league player, not actor, is currently without a club having been released by the Gold Coast Titans on compassionate grounds last month.
