Thousands of fans joined players, staff and coaches to celebrate Hull Kingston Rovers' Super League Grand Final victory and treble-winning season.

An open-top bus parade brought the team from their Craven Park ground to Queen Victoria Square in the city centre, where they paraded their three trophies on the City Hall balcony.

Saturday's 24-6 victory over Wigan Warriors at Old Trafford capped off an unforgettable campaign for the Robins, who added the trophy to the Challenge Cup and League Leaders' Shield to seal a historic treble.

Sam Wright, 46, said: "Absolutely buzzing. I can't believe my kids have seen them win the treble."
