Leeds Rhinos climbed to the top of the Super League with a come-from-behind victory over the Catalans Dragons this evening.
Visitors Leeds had a narrow 10-6 lead midway through the game at the Stade Gilbert Brutus thanks to first-half tries from Carl Ablett and Stevie Ward.
Catalans then took over with three unanswered tries at the start of the second half from Elliott Whitehead, Eloi Pelissier and Damien Cardace, two of which were converted to give them a 22-10 advantage.
With a little over 20 minutes remaining, Leeds ran riot with five tries to come out on top 36-22 by the final whistle.
Brad Singleton, Danny McGuire, Liam Sutcliffe, Kallum Watkins and Zak Hardaker all went over as the hosts, now 10th in the standings, fell apart in the closing stages.
