Chisholm could start for Robins at St Helens

Hull KR coach Chris Chester has revealed that new signing Dane Chisholm could be in line to make his debut against St Helens on Friday at Langtree Park.

With Terry Campese out for the rest of the season, and Albert Kelly having struggled through injury last week, it looks likely that Chisholm will have some role to play.

That could mean Maurice Blair moving back into the second row, where he began the season for Rovers.

“Dane will be in my thoughts,” Chester told the Hull Daily Mail.

“We need to get Bobby (Blair) back in that second-row.

“Albert came through okay and he’s fine. He carried the ball well and looked a real threat with it. He defended well too and had to do a hell of a lot of tackling.

“We’ll see how Dane goes and trains this week, but he’s ready to go (on Friday).”
