Hull KR eye Super League grand final spot ahead of St Helens semi-final

Hull KR are gearing up for the Super League semi-finals as favourites, after finishing the regular season ten points clear at the top.

Star players like Jez Litten and Mikey Lewis have impressed, and their Challenge Cup win has boosted confidence ahead of tonight's clash with St Helens.

Both teams are chasing a spot in next week’s Grand Final at Old Trafford, with Rovers hoping to turn recent big game experience into another major victory.

Litten has particularly shone in a season that saw Rovers shatter a 40-year trophyless streak with their Challenge Cup final win at Wembley, which he believes will help them approach the play-offs in a different light.

Litten said: "It's a massive game but we are all good from the experiences we've had of winning silverware and knowing how it's done.

"Our standards stay the same for every game, and we tried to keep that after the Challenge Cup final. We enjoyed our time but we moved on to the next job, and that was winning the league.

"I feel like we've shown this year we can turn up in big games, and I think that consistency shows.

"Now we've got a new challenge to get to a Grand Final and it's something else for us to chase.

"We've set out to win three trophies and we've already won two. It's a tough task but the boys will be firing."
