    Yusuf Aydin has joined Hull FC from Hull KR on a contract until the end of 2026, with fellow prop Jack Brown moving the other way on a similar deal. Aydin has been on loan at Hull and made his debut in the defeat by Leeds at the end of last month.

  • Leeds Rhinos predicted starting 13 and bench for Super League game at Catalans Dragons

    Coach Rohan Smith will need to make changes on one wing, at stand-off and possibly among the substitutes as Leeds chase a third successive victory.

  • 'I got the gist': Leeds Rhinos coach Rohan Smith responds to fans' chants after win at Hull FC

    Rhinos remain eighth in Betfred Super League, but are just two points behind the teams from third to sixth place. The result ended a two-match losing run, but while Smith insisted his side “ got what we needed” some fans were less than impressed. There were chants of “get out of our club” aimed at the coach following the final hooter, but asked in his post-match press conference about the fans’ reaction, Smith opted to focus on the number of Leeds followers who made the trip. Smith said:...

  • Leeds Rhinos reaction: Rohan Smith 'not surprised' by Riley Lumb's superb debut in win at Hull FC

    Lumb’s first senior performance was the highlight of today’s 18-12 win at Hull FC which got Rhinos back on track in Betfred Super League following successive defeats. The 19-year-old scored a spectacular touchdown to open Rhinos ‘ account and added a scrambled second just before the break. He was drafted into the side after playing on dual-registration for Halifax Panthers in the Betfred Championship seven days earlier, which was his debut as a professional player. Smith was “really proud” of...

  • A 3 and a 9: Peter Smith's Leeds Rhinos player ratings as Riley Lumb shines in 18-12 win at Hull FC

    Lumb’s fantastic all-round effort would have lit up a much better game than this horrible affair between one very poor side and another playing well below what its capable of. The 19-year-old’s first touchdown was a belter as he accelerated on to Paul Momirovski’s pass and beat three defenders with some outstanding footwork. As well as grabbing another, he was also involved in holding a Hull player up over Leeds’ line, made several strong carries and at least one outstanding catch. It was as...
