BURGESS TRYING TO CHANGE FOCUS TO TOP SHOT
DAVE CRAVEN
Joe's talking points

JOE BURGESS has spoken about his social media controversy - and what Hull KR must do to stay top of Super League.

The in-form Robins winger's brace of tries in Friday's 36-6 win over Castleford saw them usurp champions Wigan from pole position.

He did his talking on the pitch after the club had twice recently spoken to the ex-England international about his social media activity.

Rovers had talked with Burgess about his responsibilities after he reposted Tommy Robinson comments and then again after reposting Andrew Tate, which he later deleted.
