A Thursday night crowd of more than 13,000 saw Rhinos hit back from 16-8 down at half-time to beat Saints 24-16 in a thriller at the top of Betfred Super League. It ended Saints’ run of eight successive wins over Leeds at AMT Headingley and was Rhinos’ first home victory against the Merseyside outfit since 2017. Rhinos fans will be hoping that is an omen as they went on to win the Grand Final that year. Veteran photographer Steve Riding went out and about among fans at the game and here’s a selection of his pictures.
