Welcome back to The Robin Pod, your go-to place for everything Hull Kingston Rovers!

On this week’s episode, we look back at a professional and emphatic Challenge Cup performance as the Robins got the job done against community club Lock Lane in the third round. It was a night that showed the respect the competition deserves — and we’ll pick out the key moments and performances.

We’ll also react to the fourth round draw, which has handed Rovers a trip to face the Huddersfield Giants. What does that tie look like, and how might Willie Peters approach it?

Attention then turns to the bread and butter, as we preview the Super League opener against York Knights. We’ll talk selection, key battles, and what a strong start could mean for the season ahead.

As always, we’ve got your Question Time contributions to get through — plenty of opinions, debates, and talking points from the Red and White faithful — plus all the latest news and chatter from around Hull KR.

Strap yourselves in… it’s time for The Robin Pod!

Welcome along to this week’s Robin Pod Podcast, your home for all things Hull Kingston Rovers.

On this episode, our focus turns to the Challenge Cup Third Round, as the Robins prepare to take on community club Lock Lane. We’re joined by Lock Lane Head Coach, who drops in to give us his thoughts ahead of the big tie and what the game means for his side.

We’ve got all the latest squad news ahead of the weekend, and we’re also asking the big question… does anyone actually know the rules? With just 14 days to go until the World Club Challenge, Willie Peters has admitted he’s not entirely sure which set of rules the game will be played under – so we’ll try and make sense of it all.

As always, it’s Question Time, where we answer your questions, and I’m delighted to say Graham Turner joins me for the first time in 2026, giving his opinions on all things Hull KR.

We also take a step back into Hull KR history, shining a spotlight on a player who featured in the club’s famous 1964 Challenge Cup Final, reflecting on his contribution to the red and white legacy.

As always, it’s over to you during Question Time, where we answer all your latest Hull KR talking points, and we finish by asking a big question: is February 2026 shaping up to be the greatest month ever to be a Hull KR supporter?
