The weekend’s action began in West Yorkshire, as Huddersfield Giants got the better of Hull FC. Friday saw a triple header across the league, with Leeds Rhinos beating Toulouse Olympique, Hull KR defeating Bradford Bulls and Wigan Warriors besting local rivals Leigh Leopards.
Saturday also saw three games, as Warrington Wolves tamed Castleford Tigers, York Knights secured a famous win over St Helens and Wakefield Trinity continued their impressive form with a win over Catalans.
