Leeds Rhinos player ratings v Salford Red Devils as just two score 8/10 or more

Leeds Rhinos defeated Salford Red Devils 28-0 to move back into the Super League play-offs and the player ratings are in.
Forward James McDonnell stole the show in Leeds Rhinos’ 28-0 win at Salford Red Devils with the second-rower scoring four tries – and having another disallowed – as Leeds overcame a fired-up home team, after leading only 6-0 at half-time.

Rhinos were made to work hard and their attack lacked a cutting edge at times, despite some impressive moments from Jake Connor, but they never looked like conceding. Here’s how the Rhinos players rated.

Leeds Rhinos player ratings

Lachie Miller – 7

Lots of involvement, some wrong options, but a nice touchdown

Ryan Hall – 6

Involved in the second try, hard to hold, but didn’t get a lot of ball

Harry Newman – 6

Had a try disallowed for a double-movement, good involvement for Leeds’ second touchdown 6

Ash Handley – 6

Worked hard, but didn’t get a clear running chance

Riley Lumb – 6

Cleared his lines well, couple of good runs but no real attacking chances

Jake Connor – 7

Set up three tries, involved in the other and landed a 40-20, but wasn’t at his best

Matt Frawley – 6

Tried hard, ran the ball quite well, but not a lot came off for him

Mikolaj Oledzki – 6

Did okay, but blotted his copybook with a needless sin-binning

Worked hard as usual, held up a couple of times

Cooper Jenkins – 6

Nothing eye-catching, but decent stints in the first and final quarters

James Bentley – 5

One error, not a lot of game time, unusually

James McDonnell – 9

Scored all Leeds’ four tries – and had another ruled out – days after Rhinos signed another second-rower

Subs

Sam Lisone – 8

Had a much better game, at the heart of Leeds’ good start to the second half

Jack Sinfield – 6

On for the last 21 minutes, one good break and did a steady job at hooker

Lovely kick for Miller’s try, had an impact

Tom Holroyd – 7

Ran hard, direct and often
