TREASURE ISLAND

WITH its rich history of Papua New Guinea bighitters Hull KR have forged a unique deal to unearth more gems from the rugby league-mad island.

Rovers, who host to holders Leigh in tomorrow's Challenge Cup quarter-final, have linked with leading PNG outfit Port Moresby Vipers in a bid to capture some of the nation's best young talent.

The exclusive partnership sees two Vipers juniors fly across the world to try to make it big with the Super League club.

And they will stay with John Okul, the former PNG centre who settled in Hull with his family after joining the Robins following the 1995 World Cup.
