Trophy celebrations mask concern for KR

Hull Daily Mail

|

September 22, 2025

There was a post-match moment on Thursday night when Jez Litten was being interviewed on Sky Sports and he started discussing the disappointing nature of Hull KR's performance.

- By MATT SHAW

The response from the Sky pundits was simple: enjoy it.

Litten and Hull KR had just won their second major trophy of the season.

They'd just finished top of Super League for the first-time ever.

To that extent, they were exactly right. Rovers, when they needed to, found a way to win. It's not the first time this season, either.

Every team wants that trait, and it is an undoubted positive for the Robins right now. But it's also okay to be disappointed, even concerned, with how the Rovers are performing.

The reality is that Hull KR did not play well on Thursday night.

It was their second off performance back-to-back, even if it wasn't on the same scale as the defeat to Wakefield.
