Mikey Lewis insists Hull KR will approach Thursday's World Club Challenge against Brisbane Broncos with 'no fear' as the Super League champions aim to extend England's dominance in the cross-code showdown. The Robins, fresh from their 2025 domestic treble, face the NRL premiers in a match live on Sky Sports from 6.30pm.

Lewis, who scored in last season's Grand Final win over Wigan, draws confidence from England's recent Ashes series against Australia, where Brisbane stars like Reece Walsh starred in a 3-0 victory. 'We've got to execute when opportunities present themselves,' Lewis told Sky Sports, acknowledging the challenge of facing players his head coach knows intimately from his assistant role with the Kangaroos.

Hull KR's confidence stems from St Helens' 2023 victory in Australia and Wigan's 2024 win at home, giving Super League three consecutive World Club Challenge triumphs. Lewis believes another English victory would 'grow the game' across the UK. 'We play with passion and freedom,' he said, emphasizing their structure and confidence after winning their first major trophy in the Challenge Cup. The Robins aim to keep the trophy in England with a performance built on execution and pride in their jersey.
