Newman led the tryfest with four touchdown and picked up a nine-point rating from the Yorkshire Evening Post’s chief rugby league writer, Peter Smith.

Wellington Albert also caught the eye, as did Tui Lolohea (on the back of a switch to full-back), half-back Richie Myler (back from suspension), hooker Matt Parcell and Liam Sutcliffe who put in a Kevin-Sinfield-esque kicking display.
