Long-time NRL assistant coach Willie Peters will finally get his crack at the big time.. albeit in the English Super League after snaring a gig as head coach of Hull KR for the next three seasons.

After a lengthy apprenticeship in Australia – Peters takes over from fellow Aussie Tony Smith at the Robins.

“I always had an ambition to go back and coach in the Super League,” he told the KR website.

“When the opportunity came up, it just felt right. I’ve got so many good memories of when I played in Super League, I’m just grateful for the opportunity and I can’t wait to come back over there.

“I’m joining a team that’s well established and definitely on the rise. I’ve worked with a number of quality coaches and taken a lot away from what their strengths are. But of course, I’m going to do it my way.”
