Our Hull KR season ratings are in after their treble-winning year!\"HullHull Kingston Rovers lift the Betfred Super League trophy after victory over Wigan Warriors at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

Hull KR\u2019s squad of 2025 have established themselves as legends of the club with their greatness without question. Each player had a part to play across the year. We asked our rugby league<\/a> editor Matt Shaw to give his player ratings for the season.<\/p>\n

Tom Davies – 9: Brought in to replace Ryan Hall and his strong backfield carries. Ended the year as Super League’s highest metre-making winger, and scored that try at Wembley.<\/p>\n

Peta Hiku – 9: The Kiwi international was arguably Rovers’ most consistent player, the only one to feature in every match in all competitions. Was named in Super League’s Dream Team.<\/p>\n

Oliver Gildart – 7: A knee injury at Magic Weekend kept him out for four months, a real shame as he’d started the season brilliantly. Returned for the closing stages but scored a brace in the semi-final win over St Helens.<\/p>\n

Joe Burgess – 9: Unpredictable on the mic but brilliant on the pitch. The charismatic winger was superb, so much so he was named in England’s squad for the Ashes. Two tries in the Grand Final saw him end the campaign with 24 in 25 games.<\/p>\n

Mikey Lewis – 9: The hometown hero. Rovers took Roger Millward’s six jersey out of retirement for him. He rewarded them with a man of the match performance to win the Grand Final, and that conversion at Wembley.<\/p>\n

Tyrone May – 8: One who went under the radar. May never let Rovers down, a strong defender and came up with key plays, such as his two tries in the League Leaders’ Shield decider against Warrington.<\/p>\n

Sauaso Sue – 8: The big man was superb all season, setting the tone at the start of games through the middle.<\/p>\n

Jez Litten – 9: A coming of age campaign, stepping up and becoming a key player for Willie Peters’ side. His reward A treble, a Dream Team inclusion and England selection.<\/p>\n

Jared Waerea-Hargreaves – 7: One of the sport’s icons came for a swansong and left with a treble to his name. He wasn’t the player he had been, but in that Grand Final, he saved his best until last.<\/p>\n

Dean Hadley – 9: Another local hero. Everyone who plays with Dean Hadley loves Dean Hadley. Never has a player played so many minutes and looked like he could carry on for another hour. Freakish.<\/p>\n

James Batchelor – 8: Solid, dependable, crucial. James Batchelor may not be a match winner, but he is a player every team needs. You know exactly what you’re going to get.<\/p>\n

Elliot Minchella – 8: Maybe didn’t start the season as well as he ended the previous one but by the end of the campaign he was at his best and playing a key role in lifting trophies.<\/p>\n

Micky McIlorum – 6: Wanted to leave as a winner. Left as a winner. Injuries meant his appearances were limited but he played in the two major finals and ended a brilliant career on a high.<\/p>\n

Sam Luckley – 7: Deployed off the bench to cause problems and he did that. His minutes weren’t always long but he did what was asked of him by the coaches.<\/p>\n

Jai Whitbread – 9: Quite possibly Rovers’ best forward of the season. Whitbread was immense every game, starting in different positions or coming off the bench, he always did a massive job during his time on the field.<\/p>\n

Rhyse Martin – 6: A four-month quad injury stifled his progress but when he returned he got some form.<\/p>\n

Jack Broadbent – 8: The unlucky player to miss out on the Grand Final. But he still had an excellent season acting as Rovers’ Mr Versatile. Played in the Challenge Cup win at Wembley.<\/p>\n

\"JackJack Broadbent and Mikey Lewis celebrate after Hull KR’s win over Wigan Warriors.<\/p>\n

Kelepi Tanginoa – 7: Maybe not quite as impactful as his first season but still provided threat when coming off the bench.<\/p>\n

Jack Brown – 6: Had a run of games mid-season before falling out of the team. But never let anyone down.<\/p>\n

Eribe Doro – 6: Didn’t play as many games as he would like but supporters got a glimpse of what he’s capable of with his big ball carry.<\/p>\n

Bill Leyland – 6: Showed some promising signs following his move from London Broncos. His minutes were limited but some nice touches.<\/p>\n

Arthur Mourgue- 8: Arrived a few weeks into the season and proved crucial. Had big moments, no more than the wonder try against Warrington to help secure the League Leaders’ Shield.<\/p>\n

Noah Booth – 6: One for the future. Signed from Wakefield and impressed in his appearances, scoring several tries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Our Hull KR season ratings are in after their treble-winning year!Hull Kingston Rovers lift the Betfred Super League…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":206412,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[20448,20372,5903,20370,101,20373,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-206411","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-challenge-cup","tag-hull-kr","tag-rugby","tag-rugby-league","tag-sports","tag-super-league","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206411","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=206411"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206411\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/206412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=206411"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=206411"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=206411"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
