Cooke claims Hull KR victory

The former Hull star, who created some of the season's biggest headlines by moving across the city, settled a dramatic Craven Park encounter with just six minutes remaining.
A quickfire double from Rod Jenson midway through the second half looked to have won it for Huddersfield but Ben Fisher replied with two rapid tries of his own.
Despite losing, play-off bound Huddersfield did enough to ensure they did not slip below Wigan on points difference into sixth place.
Their reward is a return to Humberside next week for a theoretically easier play-off tie against Hull as opposed to a trip to Bradford.
Huddersfield started as if they were determined to avoid a scenario that would see their position settled by complex mathematics.
Two tries from Paul Reilly and one from Chris Nero gave them an advantage but Rovers fought back to finish their campaign in style.
