Boss pitches in to get Rovers over line

- DAVE CRAVEN

NERVY Hull KR boss Willie Peters needed to get pitch-side as his Super League leaders wobbled after 12-man Hull rallied brilliantly from a controversial sending off.

He left his spot in the stand as rattled Rovers threatened to lose all control in a fiery derby. They should have been home and hosed after Hull stand-off Cade Cust was red-carded for an horrendous 16th-minute high tackle.

But gutsy FC, who would have gone top with victory, fought back from 16-4 down to 16-14 heading into the final quarter, threatening a famous win.

However, two tries in three minutes from James Batchelor and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves settled an absorbing contest.
