A blockbuster clash brings Round 17 of the Betfred Super League to a close as Leeds Rhinos travel to Hull KR on Sunday, kick off 3pm.

After getting back to winning ways in style in a high-scoring display against Leigh, the Rhinos take on the competition's most in-form side as the Robins come into this weekend with only one loss to their name in all competitions. Despite a daunting challenge, a sold out away capacity will be backing the team on a fun occasion at Sewell Group Craven Park.

2025: Challenge Cup won, what's next?

With a first Challenge Cup since 1980 in the trophy cabinet following their late win over Warrington Wolves, Hull KR's focus now shifts to maintaining their course to lifting a first League Leaders' Shield and another Grand Final return. 

No team has a better record in 2025 coming into round 17 of the season as the Robins only have one defeat in all competitions and have sat at the top of the table for all but one round of the campaign. It is also the first time a team has entered round 17 with a similar record since St Helens only had one loss to their name during the 2019 campaign - Justin Holbrook's side lost their second game of the season in round 17.

Last time out saw Willie Peters' side defeat Wakefield Trinity 34-10 to continue an 11-game winning streak, which started back in April with a 28-14 derby win over Hull FC. Over the winning run, 14 points is the most Hull KR have conceded in a game, and they have only allowed a combined 26 points to be scored in their last five games. On the attacking front, they've scored 192 points in their last five outings, led by Lewis, Tom Davies and Jack Broadbent who are the side's top scorers after 18 games.

The Robins face a run of three away fixtures after their clash with the Rhinos, as trips to Leigh, Catalans and Salford await before Castleford visit Craven Park at the start of August. A clash with Wigan could be a deciding factor in the League Leaders' Shield race in round 22, as could a third clash with Leeds at AMT Headingley on 21st August.

Round Sixteen Review

Take a look at the highlights:

Key Names

Mikey Lewis - No player makes a team tick more in the Super League competition than Mikey Lewis, who has risen through the ranks at the club to help lead them to Challenge Cup success earlier this year. No player in the Super League competition has more combined tries and try assists this year than Lewis, plus he is also chasing Jake Connor down in the Man of Steel race too.

Jez Litten - Not to be overlooked with Lewis leading the attack, hooker Litten is also key for Hull KR on both sides of the ball. He ranks in the top five Super League hookers for tackles, tackle breaks, try assists and dummy half run metres, and will be a player to keep quiet where possible - much like Leigh's Edwin Ipape last Friday night.

Dean Hadley - Hadley's twelfth Super League campaign sees the back rower follow up his best campaign in 2024 with another strong season so far. Even with pressure from players as experienced as Rhyse Martin and Kelepi Tanginoa, he remains one of the first names on the team sheet for Willie Peters as he gets the hard work done to allow the backs to score the points.
