Willie Peters' side were missing five of their regulars in Joe Burgess, Oli Gildart, Micky Mcllorum, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves and Rhyse Martin.

Yet the Challenge Cup winners still barely had to get out of second gear as they swept past Castleford and nilled opponents for the SIXTH time this year.

KR have now opened up a four-point lead at the top of the table - for 24 hours at least.

Winger Booth is only playing due to Burgess' injury, but the ex-Wakefield youngster now has four tries in as many games since making his debut.
