<\/p>\nThe Robins haven’t quite been at their best since the loss to Wigan Warriors in the Challenge Cup<\/p>\n
Oliver Gildart is one Hull KR player to struggle for form in recent weeks <\/p>\n
Willie Peters has challenged his Hull KR squad to ask more of themselves as individuals as they strive to end the season well.<\/p>\n
The Robins’ season has taken a turn in the aftermath of a Challenge Cup final hammering that very few saw coming. Prior to that Wembley date with Wigan Warriors, KR had been on a nine-game winning run and were beginning to replicate the type of form they demonstrated during their 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n
Ultimately, the Robins went on to lose against Wakefield Trinity the week after Wembley before picking up wins in scrappy displays against York Knights and Leigh Leopards.<\/p>\n
Rovers were then hammered by Leeds Rhinos in a game that provided a firm indication of just how far off the pace at the top of the table they are.<\/p>\n
Peters’ side followed that up with a derby win, despite being down on troops, last weekend and the hope is that they can build into a bit of form once more now.<\/p>\n
To do that, players need to step up collectively and individually with Oliver Gildart being one of the star men to visibly struggle for form in recent weeks.<\/p>\n
The centre isn’t the only man to experience a bit of a dip in form, but he is amongst those Peters will be looking to squeeze a little more out of in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
“Yeah, Gilly is aware of that as well,” Peters said when asked about the centre. “I think after Wembley across the team everyone is probably hurting a little bit, dented confidence a little bit and then you go to Wakefield the week after lose the way we did.<\/p>\n
“We want to get more out of every player and every player wants to get more out of themselves.<\/p>\n
“If we do that then we’ll put ourselves in a good position this week and that’s the most important thing, but certainly every player, not just Gilly, but every player needs to ask more of themselves.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Robins haven’t quite been at their best since the loss to Wigan Warriors in the Challenge Cup…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":683893,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[20448,20372,5903,20370,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-683892","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-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683892","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=683892"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683892\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/683893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=683892"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=683892"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=683892"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
