The Tigresses romped to a huge 100-0 victory over city rivals Wakefield Trinity Ladies on Sunday afternoon. Tara Stanley opened the scoring with an eighth minute try which she also converted before improving a score from Grace Field for 12-0. Another superb Stanley score was followed by braces from Frankie Townend and Sinead Peach with Georgia Roche and Emma Lumley also crossing for a huge 58-0 half-time lead which included nine kicks from Stanley.
Two further scores from Townend were followed by a brace by Maisie Lumb and a hat-trick try for Stanley as the prospect of a century became a case of when rather than if it would come. Lumb wrapped up her hat-trick before Shona Hoyle and a second Roche try made it 96-0. The fabled 100 arrived in the final minute as Esme Renyolds touched down with kickers Stanley and Claire Garner ending the afternoon with ten and two successes each.
A closer contest over at the Totally Wicked Stadium as Leeds Rhinos Women edged a 16-10 win over St Helens Women. Saints opened the scoring through Jodie Cunningham with Beth Stott converting for 6-0 before she added a penalty goal for 8-0 after 30 minutes. Leeds cut the gap with a Shannon Lacey try for 8-4 into the interval.
Saints made it 10-4 on the hour with a Stott penalty goal but were then caught out as Sophie Nuttall and Caitlin Beevers crossed for tries which Courtney Hill converted to wrap up the 16-10 win and leave them one win from back to back titles.
