Lachie Miller in action for Leeds Rhinos in 2025

Leeds Rhinos ripped up the form-book with a stunning victory at Super League leaders Hull KR to move back up to third on the Super League ladder.

Brad Arthur’s side were sensational and won a thrilling contest with the try of the season, started and finished by Lachie Miller.

Miller was one of the real stars of the show at Craven Park – here are the Rhinos ratings and as you’d expect, they are very high..

Lachie Miller: 9

Another blockbuster – dare we say scintillating – attacking performance from a player transformed under Arthur. Still has the odd error in him, and always will. But such a vital cog in this Rhinos attack. Nearly 200 metres over 20-plus carries. Incredible. He has silenced his critics.

Ryan Hall: 7

No try, but stacks of effort and you cannot fault his commitment.

Harry Newman: 8

He is another who is getting better and better under Arthur. His defensive work and efforts for the team are through the roof on a weekly basis.

Ash Handley: 8

An exceptional captain’s performance, particularly with carrying the ball from deep and taking the weight off Leeds’ pack.

Alfie Edgell: 7

Does not look out of place whatsoever on that left edge.

Brodie Croft: 8

An excellent performance and incredibly measured with boot to ball.

Jake Connor: 8

He’s an England international. Or is at least playing like one. His kicking game in particular was very, very good.

Mikolaj Oledzki: 8

Big metres and big carries from a player who is the leader of this pack.

Jarrod O’Connor: 9

Questions asked again about why Andy Ackers isn’t yet in the Leeds 17: this performance was why.

Cooper Jenkins: 8

In terms of ‘Moneyball’ signings he is right at the top of the list in 2025.

Kallum Watkins: 8

Outstanding. Every. Single. Week.

James McDonnell: 8

His 100th Leeds appearance and one to remember with another wonderful performance.

Keenan Palasia: 8

Another masterstroke piece of business from Ian Blease.

Sam Lisone: 8

If he is still playing for a contract for 2026 then his value is rocketing by the week. Blockbuster from the bench yet again.

Tom Holroyd: 7

Excellent again.

James Bentley: 8

Maturing really nicely under Arthur. There have been question marks under his temperament throughout his career but he looks a much more rounded player in that regard now.

Cameron Smith: 8

One of his best displays for quite some time. Thriving in that role from the bench and making an impact later in the game.
