Leeds scored a crucial away win to the Catalan Dragons and in the process share top spot in the league with St.Helens. As seems to be the norm for Leeds now they had to come from behind at half time to eventually take a convincing win.
Rhinos scored first through Lee Smith, but the Dragons then scored through Cyril Stacul, Olivier Elima and Sebastien Raguin. Rhinos ended the half with Ryan Hall going over. This giving the half-time score of 18-10.
Rob Burrow scored for Leeds straight after the restart, Elima scoring his 2nd for Catalans had the traveling fans worried but then score form Danny McGuire, Ali Lauitiiti, Scott Donald and Hall put the game out of reach. Sinfield converted 4 and took a drop goal; for Leeds, whilst Bosc posted 4 goals for the Dragons. Final score
