Another fantastic round of Super League action is over.
It all started on Thursday night when Salford Red Devils hosted Castleford Tigers.
It was far from a classic encounter as a scrappy display from the Red Devils was enough to defeat a gutsy Castleford side in a game played in the backdrop of Andy Last’s interview to take on the job permanently.
Then on Friday night Warrington Wolves’ unbeaten start to the season ended against a brilliant Wigan Warriors side in the rain in a game dominated by discussions about the video referee.
Elsewhere on Friday night Huddersfield Giants got back to winning ways in a tough battle against Catalans Dragons.
Champions St Helens meanwhile were beaten by a Hull KR side running red hot as Mikey Lewis and Jordan Abdull continue to shine.
Their big rivals Hull FC meanwhile suffered a seventh consecutive defeat as Leeds Rhinos impressed in a 34-10 win as Ash Handley bagged a brace.
Lastly, Leigh Leopards compounded Wakefield Trinity’s woes as the West Yorkshire side lost against.
Leigh now have an eight point lead on Wakefield.
In terms of attendances, it was another terrific weekend. As you will know, Warrington Wolves set a new record attendance at the Halliwell Jones against Wigan Warriors.
Meanwhile, Leeds Rhinos continue to impress with their attendances with another five figure attendance for the West Yorkshire side.
Hull KR meanwhile were watched by another great crowd but they continue to keep their attendance undisclosed.
Meanwhile, Wakefield reported that they were closed to selling out their reduced capacity stadium with a thousand Leigh fans making the trip.
Sadly there were less than 5,000 at both Salford and Huddersfield – two teams deserving of 10K plus crowds.
It is safe to say though that both clubs have grown their fan bases in recent times and hopefully that will continue.
