Peters Urges Hull KR to Harness Emotions and Finish on a High Note
Hull KR coach Willie Peters has called on his players to channel their emotions into a strong finish to the season, following the announcement of his impending departure. Peters will leave the club at the end of the season to pursue his dream of coaching in the NRL with the newly formed PNG Chiefs. During his tenure, Peters led the Robins to a historic treble in 2025 and a quadruple-clinching World Club Challenge victory over the Brisbane Broncos in February. Despite the emotional challenge of his farewell, Peters is determined to ensure the team remains focused and committed to their goals. With eight months remaining in the season, Peters is keen to make a lasting impression and leave on a high note. He has pledged to give the team his full attention and make sure they are proud of their performances every week. Peters' decision to leave was not taken lightly, but he feels the time is right to take on a new challenge. He paid tribute to the Hull KR fans, describing them as loyal and passionate, and expressed his excitement about building relationships with the fans and staff of the PNG Chiefs. The first test of the team's emotional resolve will come in the 'Rivals Round' derby against Hull FC on Good Friday, live on Sky Sports. Peters is expecting a intense and passionate match, but has urged his players to remain calm and focused in order to achieve a positive result.
