Burnett, aged 21, has played 29 first team games for Hull - 17 last season. The arrival of a number of high-profile Australians at the Super League club has restricted his chances this season.
Prop Michael Haley will also come into the team and
Alex Rowe is a possibility for tonight's game at Don Valley Stadium, kick-off 7.30pm.
Aston will be
without the injured Jack Howieson and Ryan Hepworth but was already planning to revamp his forwards after losing the first two games of the Championship season.
Howieson has aggravated a
bicep injury and Hepworth suffered a
compound fracture of a finger in last weekend's 44-30 home defeat by Widnes. Both will be out for two to three weeks.
Back rower
Sam Barlow is also doubtful after being knocked out by an off-the-ball tackle.
The backs face a re-shuffle with winger
Richie Barnett doubtful with a hamstring strain. That should see Jonny
Woodcock back at fullback with Ashley
Thackeray switching to the wing. Matty Brooks is vying to replace Dane McDonald as Brendon Lindsay's half-back partner.
Who says we dont want forwards?!
