Hull Kingston Rovers got their season up and running with a 23-4 win over Catalans.
In a bout between two teams searching for their first win of the season, it was Tim Sheens’ side who earned the two points as ill-discipline and a stack of errors let the Dragons down once again.
It was another dismal night for Steve McNamara’s side, who failed to impress once again and conceded a bunch of poor tries.
Ryan Shaw scored the first try of the evening and by half-time, the Robins were 16-0 ahead as Mose Masoe and Shaun Lunt crashed under by the posts.
Danny Tickle bagged a debut try to extend the lead further, and although David Mead crossed for the Dragons, Chris Atkin kicked a drop-goal to secure their first victory since returning to Super League.
A full report will be in Monday’s League Express.
