Leeds Rhinos have survived a strong finish from Warrington Wolves to clinch an 18-12 win in the Super League this evening.
Joel Monaghan prevented Leeds from opening the scoring with a key tackle, before adding the first try of the match himself moments later, juggling with the ball before eventually grounding it.
The Rhinos responded with efforts from Zak Hardaker and Tom Briscoe, ensuring that the home side had a 12-6 lead at the break.
Kallum Watkins, who was making his 100th appearance for Leeds, was denied the chance to extend the home side's lead further early in the second half, being held up by three Warrington players.
Ben Westwood gave the Wolves some hope with a try late on, but the visitors could not force an equalising try in the final moments.
