Hull KR v Toulouse Olympique News

Hull Kingston Rovers welcome Toulouse Olympique from the south-west of France to the east coast of England for a fascinating looking match up.

The Robins will likely be a club that the away side will look at and think, if only we can achieve what they have achieved.

The Robins started the summer era of the sport outside of the topflight and struggling just to survive but since then they have invested in their facilites, made the step up to the topflight, established themselves there before making the step up for challenging for silverware before going on to win all that there is to win.

Whilst TO are far from that final part, they have made a good start by gaining promotion and improving their facilites but now they are in the establishing themselves in the top flight part of the progress and what better way to go about that than to cross the channel, head to one of the top English sides and come away with a shock win?
