A crowd of more than 16,000 created a vibrant atmosphere for Rhinos’ final home game before the play-offs, but most of them left disappointed after Hull FC’s shock 18-12 victory. The game was followed by Rhinos’ annual lap of appreciation, with players meeting fans and signing autographs for two hours after the final whistle.
Leeds are back at Headingley for a Super League semi-final on Friday, September 25. YEP photographer Steve Riding mingled with fans before and during the game against Hull and here’s 25 of his best pictures.
