Women’s Super League: Leeds Rhinos and Wigan Warriors win in season openers

Leeds Rhinos began the 2024 Women’s Super League season in style as Evie Cousins, Zoe Hornby and Lucy Murray all scored a hat-trick of tries in a 66-4 demolition of Huddersfield Giants.

Rhinos led 36-4 at the break, with Amelia Brown scoring what turned out to be the Giants’ solitary try.

Caitlin Beevers added two tries of her own, while Ruby Enright and Sophie Robinson also contributed to the rout.

Elsewhere on Friday, Wigan beat Barrow 18-4 in their own opening game.

In an even first half at the DW Stadium, neither side could get off the mark, but three minutes into the second half Anna Davies put Wigan ahead.

Davies registered another try after Isabel Rowe added herself to the scoresheet, while Kaitlin Hilton rounded out the win for Denis Betts’ side.

Michelle Larkin ran in an unconverted score late on as a consolation for the Raiders.
