A hat-trick from Ryan Hall helped Leeds Rhinos to a 36-14 win over Castleford Tigers at the PROBIZ Coliseum this evening.
Two tries from Hall gave the Rhinos an early lead, with Kevin Sinfield successfully kicking both goals.
Their advantage was increased soon after thanks to a score from Kallum Watkins, which Sinfield again converted.
Daryl Clark went over for his Castleford's first try of the match on 34 minutes, with Kirk Dixon making the kick.
They scored again minutes later as Dixon went over the try line to make the score 18-10 to the visitors at the break.
Josh Griffin's try after the restart could have made the Rhinos falter under the pressure, but instead they went further ahead as Hall claimed his hat-trick.
Leeds turned the screw in the final minutes thanks to tries from Danny McGuire and Liam Hood.
