Huddersfield v Hull KR: Squads Announced

Huddersfield and Hull KR have both announced their 21-man squads for Wednesday evening’s Super League fixture at the John Smith’s Stadium (KO 5:30pm).

The Giants will be looking to make it three consecutive wins under Luke Robinson, who has had a dream start to his first team coaching career.

KR, meanwhile, will be looking to bounce back after a heavy defeat to Leeds, after previously beating Wigan and narrowly losing to champions St Helens by a point.
