Leeds Rhinos strengthened their position at the top of the Super League with a 40-22 win over Wakefield Trinity at Headingley, with Micah Thibo scoring a hat-trick.
Jake Connor, who scored 16 points and played a direct role in four of his team’s tries, was a game-changer in a game where the Rhinos were briefly reduced to 11 men early in the second half after Sibo and Ash Hundley were both sin-binned.
But with Brad Arthur’s side looking to be strong contenders for the League Leaders’ Shield, Sibo is set to steal the headlines again this season by topping the try-scoring charts with 17 goals.
The result was overshadowed by a five-minute incident in which Wakefield center Cameron Scott was taken off the pitch on a stretcher after extensive treatment on the pitch.
Scott appeared to be knocked unconscious in a harmless collision with Rhinos prop Keenan Palasia, resulting in the match being postponed for just under 15 minutes.
