He is joined in Team of the Week by match-winner magic Mikey Lewis, who snatched a dramatic victory for the Robins four minutes from time.

On Saturday, Alex Mellor stole the show against his former club, as Castleford Tigers piled more misery on Huddersfield Giants.

One Leigh Leopard features in Round 9’s Team of the Week, and this time it’s two-try scorer Andrew Badrock, who enjoyed a stellar showing.

Catalans Dragons produced an emphatic comeback against Wakefield Trinity, inspired by young fullback Gulliermo Aispuro-Bichet, who kept his cool and crucially converted four out of the four goals. He also made a staggering 191 metres in 23 carries and three tackle busts - showing promising signs for the future.

There’s a trio of Warriors after their classy win against Hull FC on Sunday.

Bevan French was at his brilliant best – running 187 metres in just 18 carries and scoring two tries – one in which he converted defence into some truly splendid attack.
