Match Preview: Hull KR vs Saints

Saints face Hull KR (a) this evening at the Totally Wicked Stadium with kick off at 8.15pm and you can read all the pre-match news in our match preview story.

BACKGROUND

Mose Masoe’s two former Super League clubs will go head to head on Thursday night at our Totally Wicked Stadium with Mose in attendance to support his former teammates. Saints are actually the away team today with all Round 2 games being played at our St Helens home.

Hull KR’s new number 10 Korbin Sims will pay tribute to Mose on Thursday and wear Masoe’s name proudly on the back of his shirt in round 2, as the Robins look to secure a victory over last years champions.
