Welcome along to this week’s Robin Pod Podcast, your home for all things Hull Kingston Rovers.

On this episode, our focus turns to the Challenge Cup Third Round, as the Robins prepare to take on community club Lock Lane. We’re joined by Lock Lane Head Coach, who drops in to give us his thoughts ahead of the big tie and what the game means for his side.

We’ve got all the latest squad news ahead of the weekend, and we’re also asking the big question… does anyone actually know the rules? With just 14 days to go until the World Club Challenge, Willie Peters has admitted he’s not entirely sure which set of rules the game will be played under – so we’ll try and make sense of it all.

As always, it’s Question Time, where we answer your questions, and I’m delighted to say Graham Turner joins me for the first time in 2026, giving his opinions on all things Hull KR.

In the second episode of Robin Pod Weekly for 2026, we break down Hull KR’s only scheduled pre‑season outing as the Robins fall to Wakefield, analysing what the result means – and what it doesn’t – as preparations for the new campaign continue.

We also take a step back into Hull KR history, shining a spotlight on a player who featured in the club’s famous 1964 Challenge Cup Final, reflecting on his contribution to the red and white legacy.

As always, it’s over to you during Question Time, where we answer all your latest Hull KR talking points, and we finish by asking a big question: is February 2026 shaping up to be the greatest month ever to be a Hull KR supporter?

Insight, history, debate and plenty of Robins passion – it’s all in Episode 2 of the Robin Pod!
