Media darlings Hull KR to lose by 8.

Rovers by 6, will have to do it without Mikey Lewis if rumours are true that he's tweaked a hammy in captains run and may not be available

Don't be fooled by rumours, he's Richie Myler's first signing!

Cats by 6? Tie of the round for me!

Rovers have a strong squad and being one of the best defensive sides in the league means we will always be in with a chance if the attack does well. I think we can go there and win but it will be very tight.

If it's half as fun as the Warrington/Leigh game, it'll be a good one.

Currently 6 all.

Some fantastic tries in this game so far.

Evalds has the low sun in his eyes and Catalans are using that very well with their kicking game.

Brilliant effort that from Tom Davis.

Think that try should have been checked, looks to lose control and only retain possesion because of the KR players leg.

The Dragons have taken last weekend's loss badly, and are punishing KR for it.

Goodness! Cats are superb today. The magic of the cup in reverse.

Thought so too.

Cats too good though, Rovers need a big improvement across the board.

I think you're being a little kind to him. Hall's been a liability in defence too.

Credit to the Dragons though. They've been superb.

Yeah, Dezaria used the KR foot to support the ball and then re-gripped. It was one of those where ball isn't under his control and he uses what's underneath it.

Certainly should have been looked at; probably a drop.

Catalans striking at will coming up to HT.

Well second half about to start Dragons pack killing it.

Good turn out from Rovers fans here.

Video up tomorrow

How good has Dezaria been?

Going to have to stop players backing in to tackles to stop tackles like the crusher happening.

Liked the look of the Dragons today. Did both the pretty stuff and the tough stuff very well, very dominant physically.

I've been banging on about it for years, players have a duty to protect themselves and backing into tackles is a very, very dangerous thing to do.

Impressive from Sims to block down in the 76th minute and soccer ahead to plunge over for an eye-catching final 4-pointer.

Great first touch or fluke?

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
