Richard Agar will not rush into loans

Hull FC coach Richard Agar says he will turn to the loan market.

The Black and Whites have several players sidelined, including long-term casualties.

He's denied reports he will rush in a new face ahead of Sunday's Super League game with Castleford Tigers.

However, the club have to be mindful of the salary cap restrictions, having already utilised the loan market this season to bring in the likes of Adel Fellous, Danny Williams and Jamie Thackray.

The Challenge Cup semi-finalists are also limited as to the origin of the players they can draft in, as they already have their full quota of Australians.

The club can sign a Kolpak player, but Agar is not considering that option because of issues over work permits, the salary cap and a shortage of available candidates.
