Hull KR coach Craig Sandercock has expressed his disappointment after he saw his side narrowly lose 34-28 to St Helens at Langtree Park.
Despite the hosts racing into a 26-0 lead, Hull staged a remarkable comeback to get themselves in front with 10 minutes remaining.
However, two late tries for the Saints denied Sandercock's men a famous victory.
"I am very disappointed at losing," he told Sky Sports News. "Our start was unacceptable, but we were good enough to get back into it, once we got an even share of the ball we showed we were a decent footy side.
"We had the game in our grasp, but just at the end we were not quite good enough to get the rewards to cap what would have been a special comeback."
The defeat has left Hull ninth in the Super League table, while St Helens have moved up to third.
