Tyrone McCarthy calls for Hull Kingston Rovers composure

Hull KR captain Tyrone McCarthy claims that his side will need to stay composed if they want to beat Leeds Rhinos in the Challenge Cup final.

Hull Kingston Rovers captain Tyrone McCarthy has urged his teammates to stay composed during the Challenge Cup final against Leeds Rhinos this weekend.

The Robins will go head to head with the defending champions at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

McCarthy is anticipating an exciting clash between the teams, but the forward admits that he will be happy to take a narrow victory over Leeds.

"Leeds are a quality side who like to throw the ball around and, like us, they've got some special players who can score tries out of nowhere," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"That's why we need to have a lot of composure this week. We like to throw the ball around a bit but I think it's a big weekend for how we play out our sets, our kicking game and where we turn the ball over.

"They are two exciting teams who like to score points and I'm sure the neutrals are excited about it but we're hoping that there's not too many points getting thrown about. We'll settle for a 1-0 win if that's what it takes."

Hull KR's only previous triumph in the Challenge Cup final came 35 years ago.
