WILLIE PETERS saluted Peta Hiku for silencing his "shallow" critics as Hull KR eased to victory.
The ex-New Zealand star has endured a difficult start at Rovers after his move from North Queensland.

He also slotted just one from five goal attempts in the derby win and was sin-binned in the victory over Leeds.
Hiku had a nightmare in last week's defeat against former club Warrington.
But he was switched to centre yesterday and immediately looked more at home to ensure there was never any danger of KR slipping to three straight losses.
