Willie Peters was happy to take the win and move on after watching Hull KR beat Catalans Dragons 28-10 to strengthen their grip on a play-off spot.

In the first of four games in a fortnight, the Robins raced into an 18-0 lead inside the opening quarter thanks to a Jack Broadbent double either side of Jez Liten's try.

A solo effort from Charlie Staines got Catalans on the board soon after but Joe Burgess rounded off a strong opening 40 minutes with a fourth try for Rovers.

With the points already in the bag, KR scored just once in the second half through Tyrone May before Dragons winger Tommy Makinson had the final word.

The victory sets up the chance for the defending champions to leapfrog Warrington Wolves and move into the top four when they face off at Craven Park in their game in hand next Tuesday.

"A win and we move on," said Peters. "I thought the first 20 minutes we were great, outstanding to be honest, but we went away.

"Then we got a bit looser, they started to run harder and we got to half-time, had a good chat about what we did well but the second half was average, wasn’t it? We just made it difficult for ourselves with errors but what I was proud of is we defended our line.

"I don't want to read too much into it. At the moment it's about winning games and ticking them off. We've got a block now which is a five-day turnaround into a four-day turnaround, into a five-day turnaround.

"I'll watch the game and give players feedback but I won't go into it too much around why. I want players to recover. We came to get two points and that's what we've got."
