The Hull KR boss has welcomed a couple of key men back into the fold

Willie Peters has made two changes to his Hull KR line up to take on Wakefield Trinity at Craven Park this evening.

The Robins have the opportunity to move up to third in the Super League table with a win over the side from West Yorkshire, leapfrogging Wakefield and Warrington Wolves, who lost at Wigan Warriors on Friday night.

Joe Burgess is fit again after struggling with a shoulder injury in recent weeks. He comes into the starting line-up on the wing, with Jack Broadbent dropping down to the bench.

Sam Luckley is also fit enough to be named in the side after overcoming injury with the prop set to come off the bench.

There’s no Arthur Mourgue, though. The Frenchman has been pushing to return from his second pectoral injury of the season but he hasn’t quite made it this weekend.

That means Ryan Hampshire gets the nod at full-back once more after impressing at Magic Weekend last time out.

Karl Lawton comes into the starting line-up to play the familiar hooker role, with Jez Litten set to step off the bench.

Hull KR : Ryan Hampshire; Tom Davies, Peta Hiku, Oliver Gildart, Joe Burgess; Mikey Lewis, Tyrone May; Sauaso Sue, Karl Lawton, Jai Whitbread; Rhyse Martin, James Batchelor, Elliot Minchella.
