Sivo hat-trick keeps Leeds on top as they hold off Wakefield fightback

Leeds Rhinos defeated Wakefield Trinity 40-22 in a Super League match at Headingley, with Mikey Sivo scoring a hat-trick and Jake Connor impressing as a potential England starting half-back for the autumn World Cup. Despite having 12 men for almost 30 minutes due to three separate sin-binnings, Leeds proved too strong for Wakefield, who would have gone joint-top with a win. The result keeps Brad Arthur's Leeds side clear at the top of the Super League standings.
