Warrington Wolves edged Hull FC 12‑4, moving to a joint‑top spot in the Super League. Josh Smith struck twice, his second coming in the dying minutes, while Marc Sneyd’s conversion provided the margin. Hull led early through Harvey Barron’s corner try, but a yellow card for Luke Thomas and injuries to Zak Hardaker and Ben Currie hampered their effort.

Leigh Leopards secured a 24‑14 win over Castleford Tigers at the OneBore Stadium, lifting them to seventh place. Early points came from Jason Qareqare, but Jacob Alick‑Wiencke and Innes Senior responded to give Leigh a 12‑6 halftime lead. Jack Hughes added a third‑half try, and Adam Cook’s 66th‑minute penalty sealed the victory. The win keeps Leigh within striking distance of the top four.

Bradford Bulls recorded their sixth league win, beating York 30‑20. Early lead came from Riley Dean’s conversion and penalty, while Joey Mellor’s try near the posts extended the gap. York’s David Nofoaluma completed a hat‑trick, but Dean’s subsequent penalties and a try by Eribe Doro ensured Bradford’s control. Both teams remain in the hunt for playoff spots.
