Sivo stars as Leeds thrash Hull KR in Vegas

Maika Sivo's stunning four-try display helped Leeds Rhinos thrash Hull KR 58-6 in Las Vegas, with the Fijian winger dominating the match.

Maika Sivo made a remarkable return from injury by scoring four tries as Leeds Rhinos dismantled Hull KR 58-6 in their Betfred Super League opener in Las Vegas. The Fijian winger, who missed the entire 2025 season with a torn ACL, crossed twice in each half as Leeds established a 28-0 halftime lead.

Hull KR, who had just won the World Club Challenge 10 days ago, have now lost their first two Super League games. Head coach Willie Peters expressed disappointment, stating his team's performance was 'nowhere near good enough' after fans paid to watch the match at Allegiant Stadium.
