Hull KR has faced a series of player availability issues due to injuries and disciplinary actions. Initially, the club managed squad adjustments following a four-match ban for Mikey Lewis and a broken thumb sustained by Arthur Mourgue, which was expected to sideline Mourgue for five to six weeks.

Disciplinary challenges continued following a defeat to the Warrington Wolves. Mikey Lewis received a two-game ban for dangerous contact, while prop Tevita Pangai Jr was issued a four-match ban following three separate incidents involving late contact. These suspensions have impacted the team's roster for several upcoming matches and potential play-off fixtures.
