HULL KR prop Adam Walker is promising plenty of big hits in his first derby clash with Hull FC this Sunday.

Walker was brought to the Robins by coach Craig Sandercock after impressing with his aggressive style of play.

"There promises to be a lot of big hits on show on Sunday and I hope to make a few.

"Craig wants me to be aggressive and I intend to be. I intend to run hard and hit hard every time I play a game."

Walker made his KR debut in Sunday's 32-10 win over Wigan Warriors, showing plenty to suggest he'll be a first team regular this season.

Strong in the tackle and a constant threat in Wigan's side, Walker enjoyed his first taste of action for KR, and feels in peak condition ahead of Sunday's clash at the KC Stadium.

"I enjoyed my first run-out and I thought it went well, but there is still a lot of work for me to do if I want to be considered a first team regular," he admitted.

"This is the fittest I have felt throughout my career though and I want to do as well as I can for Hull KR.

"Making extra metres after the tackle is something I hope to do every time.

"Craig told us to impress him during the friendlies and he'll take things from there.

"If I can do that then I know I'll have a great chance to be picked and I'm confident I can be selected for the opening Super League game against Catalan.

"With this being the last pre-season friendly, I have to put everything into it and leave nothing in the tank. It may be my first taste of the derby but nerves won't get the better of me."

    “Mickhunter55, when and how did Raging fool own Forest? He was only trying to help out, clearly, you Gateshull (est.1998) fans don't have much to say. Clearly Adam didn't excite you with his comments.

    Dream on Muppet.

    BEL1£VE

    lol”

    "11points below.
    What an idiot. What a complete fool you are. Did you not see the face of one of your players wanted by the police for assaulting a woman? Do you think its acceptable?

    As for raginbull, you are quite literally an absolute moron. I have laughed at your pathetic attempts at comments on this site for many a month now and its clear you have a single figure IQ. Its a wonder you can actually use a computer.

    Are you both looking forward to seeing Chase, Paea, Prince and the six mysterious 'quality players' that were 'in the bag' that oddly haven't shown up yet?

    Has any body else notice that when forest gets absolutly owned on here he resorts to name calling. What a tool you are PMSL alex being owned by the Raginbull,love it Bull thanks for that”

    “By the sounds of Mr Pearson tonight ..He seems very worried about the ongoing talks between Mr Allam and the City Council ..Maybe the spare Cow field at Bishop Burton may be an option for the Dullers New ground ..There seemed to be alot of negatives tonight at the Forum ?

    The KC issues , the shortfall in Pass sales (don forget still need 14,500) per match , Seems Hull have given up on Brisco staying , pearson Did a fantastic job in convincing the fans he is staying ...lol.. Looks like the 2 seasons of brainwashing has finally come to an end"”

    “Think Walker has just marked his own cards with his comments!
    Lets see him put his money where his mouth is.
    If your planning to dish out big hits then be prepared to take them.
    Here's hoping for a good competitive game with zero injuries (for both teams).”
