As far as play-off semi-finals go, it does not get much tougher than an away date at Wigan Warriors.
The five-time Super League champions have reached the Grand Final on 11 occasions in all, a record only bettered by St Helens. Wigan know their way to Old Trafford as a club and have been the best team in the competition this season. Hull KR have made significant strides in recent times but have only ever been in this position once before – in 2021 when they lost at Catalans Dragons with a heavily depleted side.
Whereas the Robins are battle-hardened from last week's clash with Leigh, Wigan have had two weeks to prepare for the game after securing top spot in the final round of the regular season. Peters insists he would prefer to be in KR's shoes. 'When you've won six on the bounce, you want to keep that going,' he said. 'The players are fresh and buzzing on game day. We're still training with intensity but are keeping the sessions nice and short.
