2026 Super League injuries & results (late July)

Entities: Harry Smith · Brad O'Neill · Hull Kingston Rovers · Bradford Bulls · Wigan Warriors

Overview

Late July saw Hull KR cement their derby dominance with a 34‑20 comeback win over Hull FC at the MKM Stadium, marking their ninth successive city victory and returning them to the play‑off positions. The win highlighted the contributions of returning players Tom Amone, Arthur Mourgue and Dean Hadley, and underscored Hull FC’s sixth straight loss, extending a run of nine defeats to their rivals.

Meanwhile, Leigh Leopards continued their strong run, beating Warrington Wolves 28‑12 to claim fifth place in the league table, level on points with Warrington and ahead of last season’s champions Hull KR. With five of their remaining seven fixtures at home, Leigh are well placed for a top‑six finish.

Injury concerns persisted across the competition. Leeds dropped forward Keenan Palasia for up to six weeks, and other clubs juggled missing backs and forwards as the season entered its decisive phase.

Earlier in the month Wakefield Trinity climbed to third despite injuries, and Hull KR had already beaten Hull FC 26‑12 at the Magic Weekend.

On 31 July Hull KR added a 40‑16 victory over Bradford Bulls at Craven Park, their first return to the venue in nine years. Joe Burgess recorded his 199th and 200th career tries, while Jez Litten and Ryan Hampshire (drafted in for the injured Arthur Mourgue) also scored, reinforcing Hull KR’s standing in the league. Bradford suffered several injury setbacks, including a head‑injury assessment for Phoenix Steinwede and a green‑card dismissal for Ryan Sutton.

Leigh’s 28‑12 win over Warrington also marked their fifth consecutive league victory, further cementing their fifth‑place position.
