Hull KR extended their winning streak to eight games with a thrilling Super League victory over Leigh Leopards. The visitors dominated the first half through tries from Hiku, Davies, and Mourgue, who showed brilliant form on his return from injury. A late sin-binning to Lewis briefly disrupted their control but KR maintained a commanding lead heading into the break.

Leigh mounted an incredible second-half comeback as Charnley and Hughes crossed within minutes to reduce the deficit to just four points with ten minutes remaining. The hosts pressed for a winning try when Edwin Ipape sent Lachlan Lam through, only for Joe Burgess to produce a match-saving tackle that secured victory. KR's win sees them climb to fourth in the table while Leigh remain seventh.

Mourgue's injury return was short-lived as he left the field with what appeared to be a recurrence of the pectoral injury he sustained against Brisbane in February. The result maintains Hull KR's impressive momentum in the Super League, while Leigh will reflect on a missed opportunity to close the gap on the teams above them. The victory demonstrates KR's resilience under pressure.
