Lewis and Peters claim double honours at 2024 Rugby League Awards

Mikey Lewis and Willie Peters claimed double honours for Hull KR ahead of Saturday’s Betfred Super League Grand Final as the club’s memorable 2024 season was recognised at Rugby League’s Awards Night, staged at the Royal Armouries in Leeds.

Lewis, the 23-year-old homegrown half-back who made his England debut against Tonga last year, was crowned Steve Prescott MBE Man of Steel as the outstanding performer in the Betfred Super League campaign – only the second Hull KR player to win the award since it was introduced in 1977, and the first since Gavin Miller in 1986.

The mercurial halfback has been one of the Robins' key men in the 2024 season scoring 19 tries and having his hand in a further 24 ahead of his furst Grand Final later this week.

Peters was voted Coach of the Year, an award decided by his peers, after steering Hull KR to second in the Betfred Super League table and on to Saturday’s first Grand Final appearance in his second full season in charge at Sewell Group Craven Park.

Peters is the first Hull KR coach to win the award in the Summer era as he looks towards Saturday's final.
