London Broncos v Warrington Wolves

Stefan Ratchford starred in Warrington's win on Sunday, breaking the Super League record for the most successive kicks with 41 in a row. If Sam Burgess didn't already have a selection headache, then he certainly does now, and Ratchford receives three points on the back of his efforts.

He is closely followed by hat-trick hero Matt Dufty, who receives points for the fourth week in a row. This time it's two points, as he emerges as the round's top metre maker for a third consecutive week and Super League's current overall top metre maker. Josh Thewlis, who also scored a hat-trick for the Wolves in Round 5, takes one point.

3 points: Stefan Ratchford

2 points: Matt Dufty

1 point: Josh Thewlis
