Hull FC 22 Leeds Rhinos 40 - Winger Ash Handley’s hat-trick leaves Hull FC all at sea
Leeds began poorly, making a succession of errors and going 10-0 down, but - once they started to complete their sets - hit back strongly to lead 16-10 at the break.
Brad Dwyer’s introduction off the bench, along with Luke Gale’s class, was a major factor in Rhinos’ turnaround and the hooker again tormented Hull at the start of the second half as Leeds opened an 18-point gap.
