- By JOSH MCALLISTER

WILLIE Peters insists Hull KR's priority against Leeds Rhinos is to replicate the performance that secured their statement win over Wigan Warriors, believing the Robins' tough run-in is ideal preparation for the all-important playoffs.

Super League's two inform teams will meet tonight at Headingley Stadium, marking the third fixture between Leeds and Hull KR this season, with the head-to-head currently tied at one apiece.

The Robins are aiming to back up their top-of-the-table win over reigning champions Wigan, a victory that has put them within touching distance of a historic first ever League Leaders' Shield.
