The 18 man squads have been announced for the round 15 engage Super League XII clash with Hull KR at Craven Park have been announced and weve got it all here with a full match preview. We'll be looking to take the two points to make our way to the top of the Super League from a confident Hull KR side.

Justin To Do The Double?

Hull KR coach Justin Morgan, one of the five Gary Hetherington will be chasing up to succeed from Tony Smith will be looking to overcome the Rhinos for the second time this season.Head coach Tony Smith admitted the squad that was put out last week was not good enough after the game although he has named the same eighteen. Matt Diskin has also been ruled out following last weeks loss to the side on the other side of the river to the rovers with a groin injury. To remind you of last weeks squad, here it is; Webb, Donald, Toopi, Senior, Smith, McGuire, Burrow, Leuluai, Peacock, Jones-Buchanan, Ellis, Sinfield, Thackray, Bailey, Kirke, Ablett, Tansey, Hall.One of the main problems this season seems to be we simply can't get over the try line after putting immense pressure on the opposition so surely this has been top of the agenda in training this week.Before this season, the last time Leeds lost to the robins was over 20 years ago (now that’s a record!).

Although east Hull haven’t been in the Super League prior to this season, it still bragging rights!

The rovers are entering the game this afternoon with two wins on their backs and a hell of a lot of confidence. First Hull FC and then Wigan Warriors, evidence of the newley promoted sides class.

Hull KR 18 Man Squad: Cockayne, Hardman, Dyer, Goddard, Ford, Cooke, Webster, Tandy, Fisher, J. Netherton, O'Neill, Gene, Gannon, Tangata-Toa, Aizue, Murrell, Chester, Ward.

Hull Kingston Rovers will give a debut to new signing Ryan Tandy, the former Whitehaven and Doncaster prop.
