Willie Peters has named his squad ahead of Saturday’s clash with Wakefield Trinity
Arthur Mourgue of Hull KR in action
Hull KR head coach Willie Peters has named his 21-man squad to face Wakefield Trinity on Saturday evening with three players returning to the fold.
Peters confirmed during his press conference on Wednesday that Arthur Mourgue, Sam Luckley and Joe Burgess had trained this week and all three players have been named in the squad.
Whether they are passed as fit to play against Wakefield remains to be seen, but their inclusion is a big step forward with Dean Hadley, Tom Amone and Tevita Pangai Jr the only senior men left out of the squad this week.
Mourgue has made just four appearances for the Robins this season, the Frenchman suffering back to back pectoral injuries. Rovers will be careful with him following the recurrence that occurred during his last outing at Leigh Leopards two months ago, but to see him back in the fold is certainly a positive.
Burgess and Luckley have both been out since the win over Leigh a fortnight ago and if they’re fit, they’ll provide a big boost, too.
Burgess has been missing with a shoulder injury, while Luckley has been struggling with a hamstring problem.
Cobie Wainhouse, Harvey Horne and Lee Kershaw are the three who have made way in Peters’ squad.
Hull KR: Arthur Mourgue, Tom Davies, Peta Hiku, Oliver Gildart, Joe Burgess, Mikey Lewis, Tyrone May, Sauaso Sue, Jez Litten, James Batchelor, Elliot Minchella, Jack Broadbent, Sam Luckley, Jai Whitbread, Rhyse Martin, Karl Lawton, Jordan Dezaria, Noah Booth, Bill Leyland, Jack Charles, Ryan Hampshire.
