Hull KR gave their play-off hopes a boost with a win over Catalans.

The French side, who dropped to second after successive losses, took a 14-12 lead into the break thanks to tries from Romain Navarette and Ben Garcia.

However, the hosts went in front shortly after the restart when Jack Walker added to Shaun Kenny-Dowall and Kane Linnett's first-half scores.

Fouad Yaha got les Dracs back to within two points but Mikey Lewis' try sealed the victory for Hull KR.

Catalans are level on points with Wigan, who thumped Salford 26-8 on Friday, at the top of the table but trail the Warriors on points difference.

Hull have moved up to fifth in the table after a fourth win in their past six league matches.
