Leeds fans honour Rob Burrow then demand Smith’s exit in

Hull FC 18-10 Leeds RhinosHosts end 11-game losing run with dominant victory

Leeds’ first game since the passing of Rob Burrow resulted in their worst performance of the season so far, as they were beaten by a Hull FC side who ended an 11-match losing run in the process.

The Leeds coach, Rohan Smith, promised in the days leading up to this game that his players would put on a showing befitting of Burrow, after his tragic death a fortnight ago at the age of just 41. However, Leeds were abysmal from start to finish and this defeat against a side with just one win to their name all season before this could yet have major ramifications for Smith.
