Hull KR announce squad numbers with only one new signing taking first-team shirt and a surprise switch

Hull KR have announced their squad numbers, with just one new signing taking a first-team number.

That, unsurprisingly, falls to Lachlan Coote who joined Rovers after three seasons at reigning champions St Helens.

Brad Takairangi has been shifted to the centres to take over the number 3 from the departing Greg Minikin, with his previous number 11 being given to Dean Hadley.

New signings Phoenix Laulu-Togaga’e, Frankie Halton, Sam Wood, Tam Garratt and Greg Richards will also have to work their way into Tony Smith’s reckoning.

Youngsters Charlie Cavanaugh, Connor Moore, Daniel Okoro and Max Kirkbright have also been handed squad numbers lower down the pecking order.
