Sewell Group Craven Park, Friday
THE Challenge Cup party continued as Hull KR gave a record home crowd of over 11,000 both a homecoming and a biggest ever win over the Catalans.
Their coach Willie Peters hadn’t been sure what to expect after a somewhat disjointed week of celebrations.
But he was delighted with what he got.
“I thought it was going to be one of those games where we’d have to fight for everything and we ended up putting 14 sets together. It was a bit scratchy but I was happy when we found our groove.
“We spoke around putting consecutive sets together. It didn’t matter too much what it looked like but to just start to put fatigue in the opposition.
