HE waved off bruiser Franklin Pele now Hull KR's Elliot Minchella hopes to shake off Leeds.
The Rovers skipper takes his side into action bidding to make it two wins from two at the start of Super League.
They opened with a blistering 22-0 victory on a wild night at derby rivals Hull.
Minchella was at the centre of it all after getting walloped by giant prop Pele's crunching tackle.
The Hull debutant followed up with a crazy swinging arm to his head and then started throwing punches in the huge melee that followed.
Minchella was pictured waving Pele off after his subsequent red card that also copped him a three-game ban.
The Robins star hopes for a quieter time when former club Rhinos visit this evening.
