In a convincing display, Leeds Rhinos' leader Jake Connor played a pivotal role as his team thrashed Toulouse 46-0, scoring two tries and converting seven, while Wigan Warriors remained two points behind after defeating Leigh Leopards 20-8. The Rhinos' victory was marked by eight tries, with Connor setting the tone early on. He scored the first try and then set up Mikolaj Oledzki for the second with a skillful no-look pass. As the game progressed, Leeds continued to dominate, with Tom Holroyd adding a third try just before halftime.
The second half saw Leeds maintain their onslaught, with James McDonnell, Harry Newman, Connor again, Brodie Croft, and Riley Lumb all crossing the line. Meanwhile, Wigan secured their tenth consecutive win in all competitions against Leigh. The encounter was intense from the start, with Adam Cook scoring the first points for Leigh.
However, Wigan's Field broke through Leigh's defense just before the break, and the visitors struggled to recover. Despite a strong defensive display, Leigh's efforts were undone by errors, which Wigan capitalized on to secure their win.
