Sloppy Bulls fell to a fourth successive defeat for the first time this season to see their faint play-off hopes extinguished.

Steve McNamara’s side can still mathematically do it but on the back of an error-strewn performance like this afternoon’s they have no chance.

They dominated the first half but should have done more with their possession instead of throwing it away and went in 16-12 behind.

Dave Halley and Mick Worrincy bagged tries, with Paul Deacon and Paul Sykes adding conversions, but that was as good as it got as the mistakes intensified after the restart.

Hull KR -with Michael Dobson pulling the strings and England full back Shaun Briscoe in awesome form - capitalised, running in another three tries to strengthen their hold on fourth place.
