Rookie sensation Riley Lumb stole the show in his debut for Leeds, scoring two crucial tries in a gritty 18-12 victory over Hull at the MKM Stadium.

Lumb, filling in for the injured David Fusitu'a, showcased his talent with a stunning individual effort to level the scores after Hull had taken the lead.

The 19-year-old struck again before half-time to put Leeds ahead, and Cam Smith's try extended their lead to 12 points.

Despite a late try from Hull's Lewis Martin, Leeds managed to hold on for the win.

After disappointing losses at home, Leeds found solace on the road, easing the pressure on coach Rohan Smith.

Meanwhile, Hull's struggles continue with their seventh consecutive defeat, leaving them only above the London Broncos in the Betfred Super League standings.

However, after conceding high scores in recent matches, Hull put in a much-improved performance against Leeds.

Overall, it was a thrilling contest filled with ups and downs, showcasing the fierce competition in the world of Rugby League.
