Leeds Rhinos retain superleague title
The Leeds Rhinos have retained their Super League crown with a 26-18 victory over Warrington in front of 70,676 people at Old Trafford. Captain Kevin Sinfield was once again instrumental in the Rhinos success, scoring a rare try and kicking 5 goals from as many attempts.
His performance all the more impressive after suffering 2 crushing injuries during the course of the 80 minutes. His display was enough to earn him the Harry Sunderland Trophy as man of the match.
The victory enabled Rhinos to became Super League's most successful club, with six championships since the competition began in 1996, while former England captain Jamie Peacock celebrated his eighth victory on his record-breaking 10th appearance.

New Leeds signing 'almost quit' Rugby League
New Leeds Rhinos signing Mitch Achurch says he almost quit rugby league 12 months ago. The 24-year-old Penrith Panthers forward has signed a four-year contract with the Rhinos after his potential was spotted by former Leeds favourite Matt Adamson.
– Mitch Achurch"A year ago I was thinking about quitting the game. Playing footy wasn't paying the bills and I was living at home with my mum and dad. My dad runs a family sign-making business and I told him that I wanted to give it up and work with him. My family persuaded me to keep trying and I got a chance with Penrith, then got to play first grade and then Leeds got in touch."
Achurch is in England on a two-week reconnaissance to sort out accommodation before returning for pre-season training in November and will be a spectator at the Rhinos' Super League play-off semi-final at Wigan. Achurch has a British passport because his mother was born in London.

Leuluai, who has been absent for only one of the Rhinos' 34 matches so far this season, was given the suspension, along with a £300 fine, after being found guilty by the Rugby Football League's disciplinary committee of a grade B offence of punching.
He had been cited by the RFL's match-review panel for the offence on winger Peter Fox in the last minute of the Rhinos' 42-20 play-off win over Wakefield last Saturday.
