Hull KR's World Club Challenge preparations have been thrown into disarray as head coach Willie Peters reveals an injury update that could impact their chances. The club is now left sweating over the fitness of influential forward Dean Hadley, who was a late withdrawal against York Knights. The reigning champions suffered a shock defeat, and Hadley's absence may have played a role. The 33-year-old utility player, who was set to start in the front row, pulled out during the warm-up, and his replacement, Jack Brown, couldn't prevent the Robins' defeat. Ata Hingano's late drop goal sealed the win for York, who overturned a deficit in front of a sold-out crowd. Meanwhile, new recruit Tom Amone, a 2023 Dream Team prop, is expected to be available for the upcoming match against Brisbane Broncos. Hooker Jez Litten also returned to the field after passing a head injury assessment. Peters revealed that Hadley's withdrawal was due to a rib issue and an ineffective injection. The coach expressed hope for Hadley's recovery, emphasizing his importance to the team. As the club prepares for the World Club Challenge, the injury update has added an element of uncertainty. Will Hadley's absence impact their performance? The fans are eagerly awaiting updates, and the comments section is buzzing with speculation. Will the Robins bounce back?
