Rovers host Wigan on Thursday night

Hull KR head coach Willie Peters has named his strongest available squad to take on Wigan Warriors on Thursday night.

The Robins face off against Wigan at Craven Park in the first of a double header, with the two sides set to meet in the Challenge Cup final next week.

Peters could still opt to rest a number of players this week, but he has named the best 21-man squad available to him to face the Warriors.

Arthur Mourgue drops out due to the pec injury he suffered at Leigh Leopards on Saturday and that doesn’t come as a surprise .

Joe Burgess also misses out due to a minor shoulder issue with the winger looking to be fresh for Wembley.

Jack Charles drops out too this week with Jordan Dezaria, Ryan Hampshire and Harvey Horne stepping into the fold.

Wigan boss Matt Peet has gone for a very different approach this week, switching up a huge chunk of his squad.

A handful of first-team regulars have been included in the side with Zach Eckersley, Junior Nsemba, Patrick Mago and Jack Farrimond set for game time in east Hull.

However, the rest of the squad is made up of youngsters and the up to 10 potential debutants with Peet set to give away absolutely nothing in the build up to the final.
