WARRINGTON Wolves play their first competitive home fixture under Sam Burgess this evening.
In the first of back-to-back games at The Halliwell Jones Stadium, The Wire welcome Hull FC and their former head coach Tony Smith for tonight’s Round Two clash.
Both sides are looking for their first victories of the season following Round One defeats – Warrington were edged out by Catalans Dragons in Perpignan while the Airlie Birds were soundly beaten by cross-city rivals Hull KR.
Warrington vs Hull FC TV details, tickets and referee
