Hull KR 12-6 Wigan
Nick Pinkney BBC Radio Humberside Summariser
We're back to a converted try distance between the two teams. Apart from that breakaway try from Wigan, which was a great response, Hull KR have been in control.

Paul Rowley Salford Red Devils head coach on BBC Radio 5 Live
Patrick Mago has nailed what Kaide Ellis couldn't nail in that entire first half. He's played out the back, he's utilised the space.
When you've got pace in your side you can do anything. Harry Smith is not going to drop that ball like Bevan French did in the first half and now we've got a game.

Hull KR 10-2 Wigan
Ryan Brierley Ex-Salford Red Devils stand-off on BBC Radio Manchester
Wigan have to get back into the way they play, in terms of dominating territory, dominating field position and letting Jai Field and Bevan French have their platform.

Chris Hill Former Warrington Wolves captain on BBC Radio Manchester
I think Matt Peet will have been structured, he will have told his team to get back into the game in the first 10 minutes and let's give Hull KR something to think about.
You senese there is a buzz of expection around Old Trafford, because Wigan are in desperate need of a try right now while Hull KR can land a real sucker punch if they go over again.

Hull KR 10-2 Wigan
John Kear Former Wales head coach on BBC Radio 5 Live
I think both teams will put their foot to the floor because they're used to the atmosphere now, they're in the game and it's become just another game now with great consequences obviously should you win it.

HT: Hull KR 10-2 Wigan
Nick Pinkney BBC Radio Humberside Summariser
It's been a fantastic half, frantic, absolutely end-to-end stuff .
It was white hot at times and Rovers had to endure a lot of pressure early on mostly put on by themselves Three drop balls and two penalties allowed Wigan to create a little bit of momentum early in that first half but Rovers inch by inch worked it back and then it was the Brad O’Neill infringement and Rovers haven't looked back.
Wigan got consolation at the end with the penalty because they were going nowhere but that half truly belongs to Hull KR, absolutely dominant.
