Leeds Rhinos: Player ratings from tough night at St Helens
Leeds Rhinos are licking their wounds after a crushing 40-6 setback at St Helens.
The damage was done in the first 30 minutes as Saints blasted into a 28-0 lead.
It was a tough night for an under-strength Leeds team, who had to reshuffle after James Donaldson withdrew due to illness.
Morgan Gannon was rested ahead of next week's make or break clash with Hull KR.
