Rhinos challenged to display their play-off credentials in season run-in

Rhinos' Magic Weekend win against St Helens two weeks ago lifted them above this evening's visitors Hull FC into fourth place in the Betfred Super League table, which would mean a home play-off if they can stay there for the rest of the campaign.

Leeds haven't finished higher than fifth since 2017, but round 11-of 27began with Rhinos just two points clear of Warrington Wolves, who are ninth and coach Brad Arthur has stressed their current position means nothing.

Asked if he believes his side are a top-four team, Arthur insisted: “It’s up to us to show that, isn’t it? We have been there for one week, you need to be there for 10-15 weeks.”
