Hull FC confirm devastating Will Pryce blow with serious injury in Wigan Warriors defeat
Hull FC have confirmed that star man Will Pryce is likely to miss the rest of the season after rupturing his Anterior Cruciate Ligament in their defeat to Wigan Warriors.
The 23-year-old, who arrived at the MKM Stadium on a three-and-a-half-year deal midway through last season from NRL side Newcastle Knights, was forced off late on in Hull’s 34-6 defeat to Wigan on Saturday night.
The fullback went down awkwardly in a tackle with just minutes remaining, and play was stopped immediately, with Pryce in visible discomfort as he received medical attention on the field.
Pryce limped off the pitch at the Brick Community Stadium with the assistance of the club’s medical staff, and scans have now revealed that Hull are likely to be without one of their key players until 2027.
A club statement read: “Hull FC can provide an injury update on Will Pryce. Pryce left the field of play with an injury in the closing stages of Saturday's Betfred Super League Round 2 fixture against Wigan Warriors at the Brick Community Stadium.
“Following scans today (Monday), the club can confirm that Pryce has suffered a ruptured ACL.
“The full-back is expected to be sidelined for the remainder of the 2026 season. Pryce will undergo surgery in the coming weeks and begin his rehabilitation.
“Everyone at the club sends Will their best wishes at this difficult time.”
It is a devastating blow for John Cartwright’s side and Pryce, who produced a Player of the Match performance in their opening round win over Bradford Bulls a fortnight ago.
