Both teams fielded their strongest-available lineup to start Ash Handley’s testimonial game before making a host of changes after the break, giving several academy players a taste of first team action. Handley was one of four try scorers for Leeds, who led 12-4 at half-time. Rhinos picked up a couple of injuries, but there were some good individual performances. Here’s how the Leeds players rated.
