Motu Tony has undergone surgery to clear an ankle infection believed to have been caused by an insect bite.

The Hull full-back has endured an injury hit season so far, after missing the start of the campaign because of a knee operation.

He has made just five Super League appearances this season as a consequence and last played in the 24-12 defeat at Warrington on June 28.

Tony has been ruled out of Saturday's match at home to champions Leeds Rhinos, therefore, along with prop Ewan Dowes, who has a calf injury.
