Willie Peters branded Hull KR\u2019s display Las Vegas as the worst in his time at the club, describing the performance as \u2018soft\u2019.<\/p>\n
Just nine days after winning the World Club Challenge, the Robins were thrashed 58-6 by Leeds Rhinos as they were well and truly outplayed in every aspect of the game.<\/p>\n
The defeat leaves them with zero wins from two games, but more pressingly for Peters, he was livid with his side\u2019s showing in front of a huge Hull KR following.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere do I start?\u201d Peters said. \u201cBeaten in every area, and to be honest, the people I feel sorry for are the fans that paid hard-earned money to come today to watch that. To spend or save money to come and watch their team play, and we deliver a performance like that, it\u2019s just nowhere near good enough.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we need to all look at ourselves, myself at the top of that, to find out why we got that performance. But it certainly brought us back down to earth, that\u2019s for sure. And we\u2019re there to make sure that we action more than words and do something about it, because if that\u2019s going to be the template of what we do this season, we\u2019re in for a long season.\u201d<\/p>\n
Peters refused to use last week\u2019s emotionally charged victory as an excuse for their showing.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo excuses for that. Not that, not what we just delivered. If we perform and we get beat, then maybe there\u2019s excuses why we ran out of petrol or whatever, but that performance is no excuse and I\u2019m not going to sit here and deliver excuses of last week and all that sort of stuff, because it\u2019s going to get tougher.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked if it was the worst performance of his Hull KR tenure, Peters added: \u201cYeah, I can\u2019t think of it, it would be the worst performance for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n
Peters was clearly fuming with his side\u2019s outing but said he wouldn\u2019t stop his players from going out in Las Vegas after the game if they wished to do so.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019re men, men make decisions, their own decisions. Most of the time, you\u2019d like to think men make the right decisions around if they earned it or deserve it. It\u2019s up to them.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve got to go see our fans and I\u2019ll be there. I think people have organised something else. Whether they go to that, that\u2019s up to them. We\u2019ve got a responsibility to go back where we\u2019re going to go back to now and greet our fans.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf the players want to have a beer, they can have a beer, but if they decide to go out and do what they want to do, then that\u2019s up to them. Again, they need to conduct themselves the right way. I\u2019m not going to be saying, you\u2019re not going out, they\u2019re grown men. If they decide to go out, great. If they decide to go out, well, it\u2019s up to them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Willie Peters branded Hull KR\u2019s display Las Vegas as the worst in his time at the club, describing…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":451443,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[5903,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-451442","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-rugby","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/451442","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=451442"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/451442\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/451443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=451442"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=451442"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=451442"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
