Leeds Rhinos underlined their position at the top of Super League thanks to this bruising win over Wakefield Trinity, with their.half-back Jake Connor further emphasising why he should be England’s starting scrum-half for this autumn’s World Cup.
Leeds were eye-catching once again as they survived having three players sent to the sin-bin to defeat a Wakefield side who could have drawn level with the Rhinos had they won here after their own impressive start to the season.
