Highlights of the confrontation of the Super League between the rhinos of Leeds and Hull Kr
Leeds warned another opinion of their great intention of final with a categorical victory of 28-6 against the leaders of Betfred Super League Hull Kr in Headingley.
Jake Connor’s first half tries, Presley Cassell and Lachlan Miller, completed by a second half effort by Harry Newman and Six Connor Kicks, continued their dramatic renewal under the newly secure head coach Brad Arthur.
The Rovers seemed a pale imitation on the side that the shield of the League leaders last week ended with a 10-6 victory with a power closest to Wigan.
On the other hand, Leeds is gaining momentum as each week passes, and after two years without post-season, little dares to bet against them extend their dramatic renewal to the centerpiece of the Super League in October.
Rovers lost Saaso Sue because of injuries in the first five minutes and probably delivered his 40 weakest 40 minutes of the season to date while the Rhinos have taken an advance from 18-0 half-time.
The early momentum of visitors was distant when a Mikey Lewis kick was closely charged, and the Rovers were punished after Jez enlightened the possession with an imprudent front pass after 15 minutes.

Connor simulated a pass, then twisted through the defense of the Rovers to attack and set up with the simplest conversions to operate the rhinos.
Leeds continued to press and was worthy of their luck less than five minutes later when Kallum Watkins kicks the left post and bounced favorably for the teenager Cassell to found his first test at home.
Unless a careful call to Tom Davies, which was maintained a few centimeters from the Leeds line, Rovers offered little attacking threat, and the rhinos extended their lead just before the half hour when Harry Newman broke out halfway to trigger the movement that ended with Miller while cutting right.

It turned out to be an expensive half for Rovers, their pack decimated by adding Jai Whitbread to their injury list, and a predictable period of pressure at the start of the second half ended when Peta Hiku was discussed a few centimeters.

Leeds resisted the storm and rarely looked troubled, the brilliant tackle of Newman’s test economy on Joe Burgess while the man of the Rovers shaped to dive into the corner summarizing the different levels of intensity between the two sides.
Leeds obtained a powerful deduction on the hours when Newman dropped a kick on his own test line and that the Robins jumped for a video review to govern that the man of Leeds had been approached in the air by Jack Broadbent.

Two Connor penalties have sandwiched a fourth trial of Leeds of the Newman occupied with 13 minutes to play, and when Davies finally broke the impasse of Rovers with two minutes to do – converted by the old Rhino Rhyse Martin – he simply saw the visitors avoid the indignity of a first laundering since 2022.
