The Rugby League Hot Recap

Leeds edge Warrington thriller, Huddersfield smash Wigan and both French sides fall short in comebacks

Season 3, Ep. 18

Locky Campbell and Eliot McGuire return for a Sunday night recap.


We bring the curtain down on an eventful 30th anniversary celebrations for the Betfred Super League, answering all the big questions. Starting with whether Warrington could go top with a win over Leeds? Would Wigan return to form against Huddersfield? Could Hull FC make it back-to-back wins at home and would Leigh be able to get their second win of the season?


It's then on to the NRL where the NQ Cowboys pulled off a big upset over Melbourne, Penrith eased past Parramatta, the Knights impressed against Canterbury and St George lose their fourth in a row to remain winless.


We'll be back on Monday 9 April!
