Jez Litten starred again for Hull KR in the derby victory.
Hull KR are on the brink of winning the League Leaders’ Shield after an 18-4 win over Hull FC. Four tries were enough for Willie Peters’ side, who secured their third straight win over the Black and Whites this season.
Arthur Mourgue – 5: Listen, trying to kick goals at Craven Park in that wind is difficult for anyone. Not his day but did a decent job otherwise.
Tom Davies – 8: His carries are so good. Has to be in the mix for England. Got another try.
Peta Hiku – 7: Had a good battle with Davy Litten, who he kept quiet throughout.
Jack Broadbent – 6: Two handling errors he won’t be pleased with but smart play for his try.
Noah Booth – 7: Looks really confident every time he is given a chance. Rovers have a talented player there.
Mikey Lewis – 7: A mature performance as he came under a lot of underhanded tactics, particularly late on.
Tyrone May – 7: Defended superbly and the pass for Davies’ try was delightful.
Jai Whitbread – 7: Tough as teek. A proper graft in the middle.
Jez Litten – 9: Doing his best to make sure Shaun Wane can’t overlook him at the end of the year.
Jared Waerea-Hargreaves – 7: Strong at the start and took in a heap of carries. High workrate.
Dean Hadley – 7: A typical Dean Hadley performance. Solid.
James Batchelor – 7: Neat, tidy, industrious. Nothing gets past him.
Elliot Minchella – 7: May be sweating over the sin bin but played with high intensity throughout.
Sam Luckley – 6: A shorter stint but got through his carries.
Kelepi Tanginoa – 6: A few strong leg drive carries in a steady display.
Eribe Doro – 6: Another with a shorter stint but did his job OK.
Bill Leyland – N/A: Didn’t come on the field until the closing stages.
