Hull KR stand-off Scott Murrell insists his side's Challenge Cup exploits will count for nothing if they fail to win promotion to the Super League. The National League One leaders reached the semi-finals with a 40-36 win over Super League side Warrington.
The success was a club-record 18th straight win and set up Hull KR's first semi-final in 20 years.
But Murrell said: "Whatever else comes is a bonus and keeps us on a high, but Super League is our main goal."
Hull KR edged Warrington eight tries to seven after twice coming back from 10-point deficits.
And Murrell, 20, who joined Rovers from Leeds last December, added: "At the start of the season we didn't even think about getting this far in the Challenge Cup.
"Our main aim was to get to the Grand Final and win promotion to Super League.
"And I think this team is ready for it. The way we're playing then we can achieve it if we keep our feet on the ground."
Also in the semi-finals are Leeds, Huddersfield and St Helens.
The draw will be made on BBC Breakfast at about 0730 BST on 6 June.
