• Hull KR hang on after Salford’s stirring comeback
Leeds Rhinos have celebrated some momentous victories in huge settings, but the celebrations at full-time here underlined the significance of their 24-22 win over London.
Rightly or wrongly, this game had been billed as perhaps Leeds’s most important of the modern era – an opinion perhaps intensified by Hull KR’s 22-20 victory against Salford earlier in the day, which guaranteed the loser would be cut adrift at the bottom. The Rhinos, as on several occasions this season, made hard work of it:, but in the end it was job done.
