Hull are 80 minutes away from a Grand Final appearance on their own ground after securing a shock 27-14 win over Warrington in the opening round of the Super League play-offs.

The Black and Whites only qualified for the Grand Final series after the league decided to expand it from four to six clubs. They will now take on Wigan at the DW Stadium next Thursday for a place in the decider, which will be held at the KCOM Stadium on November 27th.

England international Jake Connor, once more revelling in the full-back role, helped lay on three tries before scoring the clincher himself as Hull claimed their first win of the season over a top-three team.

Andy Last's team were eighth in the table in September but they ended the regular season with three straight wins and took their new-found confidence into their sudden-death tie at the Halliwell Jones Stadium.
