UK Super League wrap

4:11 pm on 5 September 2009

The UK Super League champions Leeds have defeated bitter rivals St Helens 18-10 to go two points clear at the top of the table with just one round left in the regular season.

England winger Ryan Hall grabbed a brace of tries in front of a crowd of 19,997 at Headingley, taking his tally for the season to 30.

The win means Leeds need only avoid a heavy defeat in their last match at Salford to ensure they go into the play-offs in pole position.

And Amos Roberts and George Carmont scored two tries each as Wigan saw off Hull 34-22 to claim home ground advantage for the playoffs.
