Trophy talk is a privilege - Peters

IT SHOWS CLUB'S PROGRESS, SAYS KR HEAD COACH

- By JAMES SMAILES

Coach Willie Peters says he welcomes being told by rivals that his Hull KR side have to win a trophy this season.

With recently all-conquering Wigan Warriors out of the Challenge Cup this year and KR top of Super League, many outside of east Hull have attempted to add further pressure on the Robins by insisting they have to win something this year with it being their perfect chance.

KR have been made odds on favourites to win their semi-final against Catalans Dragons in York on Saturday, with bookmakers also billing the Robins as clear favourites to lift the trophy at Wembley.
