Super League form table: Hull KR flying, Leigh Leopards in form with Wigan Warriors sinking
The 2024 Super League campaign is fast approaching the business end of proceedings, and all 12 clubs find themselves in differing runs of form.
Virtually every team still has something to play for, be it the pride of not finishing bottom, trying to obtain a play-off spot, or a top two finish.
And over the last five games, a number of teams are beginning to hit their strides, as the form table suggests.
For most clubs, their last five games have come from rounds 17 to 21, inclusive. But Wigan Warriors and Leigh Leopards played out their rescheduled Round 2 clash last Tuesday night.
Accordingly, their ‘form’ is judged off rounds 18 to 21, inclusive, and that Round 2 meeting – which the Warriors won 28-6 on home soil.
Hull KR sit top of the form table as the only club in Super League to have won all of their last five games.
Elsewhere, both Leigh and Warrington Wolves have won four of their last five. Had the Leopards won that rescheduled Round 2 trip to Wigan, they’d have had six wins in a row, but instead, it’s five in the last six overall.
Elsewhere, Catalans Dragons earned a third win in their last five with a 23-22 win at Huddersfield on Friday night courtesy of Arthur Mourgue’s late drop goal, and they sit 4th in the form table.
Leeds Rhinos, Salford Red Devils, St Helens, Castleford Tigers and Wigan have ALL won just two of their last five games, and sit locked on four points in this form table.
Huddersfield, London Broncos and Hull FC are then locked at the bottom of the form ladder with one win from their last five.
It’s the Black and Whites who officially sit bottom due to their inferior points difference, shipping 42 points at Leigh on Sunday and losing by 30 to see their points difference over their most recent five outings drop to -90.
