World Club Challenge: Mikey Lewis redeems himself on night Hull KR conquer the world

Mikey Lewis said winning the World Club Challenge was an opportunity too good to turn down after atoning for his recent indiscretion by helping Hull KR scale the summit of rugby league.

Last year's treble winners were stunned by a 19-18 loss in their season opener at York Knights in the build-up to the clash with the NRL champions.

But Lewis and his team-mates avenged that defeat in style with a scintillating 30-24 victory at the MKM Stadium to be crowned world champions for the very first time.
