Leeds Rhinos emphatically returned to winning ways with a 52-0 demolition of Huddersfield Giants, moving them to the top of the Super League table. Mikolaj Oledzki and Harry Newman both scored twice as Leeds bounced back from last week's defeat at Wigan with a dominant first-half performance that established an unassailable lead.

Josh Charnley stole the spotlight with a hat-trick as Leigh Leopards delivered a nine-try rout of Hull FC 42-6. After a scoreless opening quarter, Charnley broke the deadlock and helped set up their commanding second-half performance that saw them add 30 unanswered points to thoroughly outclass their opponents.

The comprehensive victories leave Leeds firmly in the title conversation while Leigh builds momentum after their narrow defeat to Hull KR last time out. With the season now approaching its critical phase, both teams have demonstrated their championship credentials with performances that will send a message to their rivals.
