Hadley says the Robins are determined to keep up their title challenge

STAR REMEMBERS HOW IMPORTANT POINTS DIFFERENCE WAS LAST SEASON

- By DAVID CRAVEN

Dean Hadley says Hull KR are chasing down the League Leaders' Shield - and will make sure they don't come up short on points difference.

Rovers missed out on top spot to Wigan last year and also fell against Matt Peet's side in the Old Trafford title decider.

But they are leading from the front this time around, holding a two-point advantage over the second-placed champions heading into Thursday's trip to Castleford Tigers.

And Friday's 68-6 walloping of Catalans Dragons did wonders for their points difference taking it to a massive plus 334.

Ahead of Round 15 - already past the season halfway mark - Wigan are only on plus 295.

Rovers visit them on August 15 in a contest which, if both sides continue in their current form, could go a long way towards deciding who clinches the silverware for top spot.
