Rhinos retained the Wetherby Whaler Festive Challenge trophy with an 18-16 victory, thanks to a last-gasp converted try. Trinity trailed 12-0 after just 15 minutes, but hit back to lead by four points going into the final quarter. YEP photographer Tony Johnson was on hand to capture the action. Here’s a selection of his pictures.
