HULL KR will be without Niall Evalds for their final game of the Super League regular season – and possibly Kelepi Tanginoa too.
Fullback Evalds, who missed their loss at Wigan Warriors with a calf injury, didn’t last long on his return against Leigh Leopards after a head clash saw him taken off early in the first half.
He failed the head-injury assessment and as a result must stand down for next Friday’s visit of Leeds Rhinos to Craven Park.
Robins head coach Willie Peters said: “I spoke to him at half-time and he said he remembers everything, but I don’t know whether he does or not. He does seem okay.”
Hull KR were without back-rower Tanginoa for the Leigh match with a hamstring injury picked up against Wigan, and Peters is unsure whether he will be fit to return next week.
“He’s got a slight issue with his hamstring, so we’ll just see how that goes during the week,” added Peters.
“It got sorer as the week went on and we sent him for a scan. There’s something minor there.”
