Super League - Hull KR v Hull FC - Thursday 27 June

Hull KR have extended the loan periods of forwards Dan Murray, Luis Johnson and Harvey Livett.

The trio all starred in the Robins’ crucial 32-16 win at Leeds on Friday night.

They have all featured in the last four games since joining on initial one-month deals, having been signed by new coach Tony Smith.

Smith handed Livett his Super League debut while at Warrington, while Murray recently arrived in a deal that saw Ryan Lannon go in the other direction to Salford.

After last night’s game, Smith told Hull KR TV: “Dan Murray had his strongest game since he’s been with us, Harvey Livett too, there were all sorts of people I can mention but combined was a great effort.”

Former Castleford youngster Johnson has played for Rochdale and Widnes in the Championship this season.
