Leeds Rhinos registered their first win under new head coach Brad Arthur on Thursday, and Rhyse Martin and James McDonnell both produced top defensive efforts to ensure they could comfortably beat their rivals Huddersfield. Martin also successfully kicked 5/6 from the boot.
Warrington Wolves are the new league leaders following Round 19, after their sensational victory against Wigan Warriors.
Arron Lindop and Matty Ashton scored two tremendous tries each, while newcomer Luke Yates never once looked out of place, making 35 tackles - the highest of any player on the pitch.

Absolute quality from @LeighLeopardsRL ?#SuperLeague pic.twitter.com/rSugVWM7bo
There are four Leopards players who feature in total – a first for any team in 2024. Try scorers Josh Charnley and Darnell McIntosh produced over 350 metres combined, while Edwin Ipape was also pivotal as Leigh Leopards keep their Play-Off hopes well and truly alive…
Hat-trick hero Mikey Lewis stole the show in Round 19, and he’s now scored a try in every outing against London Broncos this year. The 23-year-old ran 115 metres, made seven tackle busts, and created two try assists, as well as scoring three terrific tries for himself.
Oli Partington produced a standout performance in Salford’s victory over Castleford and earns his place in Team of the Week. Not only did he come up with crucial try, but also ran 108 metres, made five tackle busts, and completed a mammoth 36 tackles.
Is that the try which seals the victory for @SalfordDevils? ?
