SKIPPER MINCHELLA SAYS THE ROBINS ARE READY FOR CUP SHOWDOWN

- By JAMES SMAILES

We've had the perfect preparation for our game against Catalans

As relaxed as you can be with a microphone in front of you, Hull KR captain Elliot Minchella cuts a very comfortable figure as he discusses an impending Challenge Cup semi-final.

Among the hustle and bustle of the LNER Community Stadium reception, which also serves as a cafe and leisure centre entrance, the hive of activity passes by unnoticed as the Rovers loose-forward addresses the challenge that lies ahead.

Given it's Hull KR’s fourth successive Challenge Cup semi-final, a club that played in a Grand Final too last season is more than accustomed to these type of big media days by now.

There's a familiarity to it all, even more so when recent weeks are taken into account.

Battle-hardened on the field by what has transpired so far this season in a campaign which currently has them top of the tree in Super League, mentally Hull KR couldn't be in any better shape either for the test that awaits them.

The Robins have experienced a month like no other and it’s left them in the best possible condition.

It’s a fact not lost on Minchella, as he readies himself for yet another big occasion.
