The Warrington Wolves earned their place in the Super League semi-finals following a decisive 35-12 win against Hull KR. The match, held at the Halliwell Jones Stadium, saw Warrington dominate the reigning champions to set up a high-stakes encounter with the Leeds Rhinos in the next round.

A significant turning point in the match occurred when Hull KR player Peta Hiku was sent off. The red card forced Hull KR to play with a numerical disadvantage for a portion of the game, which hampered their ability to mount a comeback against a strong Warrington side. While the match was billed as a competitive eliminator, Warrington’s offensive performance allowed them to pull away on the scoreboard, ultimately securing a comfortable margin of victory.

Following the result, Warrington now turns its attention to preparing for Leeds. The defeat marks the end of the current campaign for Hull KR, who entered the match as the reigning champions but were unable to overcome the pressure applied by the home side.
