As Leeds Rhinos bounced back with a Rivals Round win over near neighbours Castleford Tigers on Thursday, Andy Ackers, Paul Momirovski and Sam Lisone all feature in Round 6's Team of the Week.

Ackers impressed with his defensive efforts making 32 tackles - one of the Rhinos' top tacklers of the evening, whilst Momirovski contributed two crucial tries and Lisone gave a great attacking effort.

Hull KR were rampant against their nearest and dearest in the Hull derby on Good Friday as a trio of Robins made this week's Team of the Week.

Joe Burgess, Niall Evalds and Peta Hiku were Hull KR's top three metre makers of the round - making a combined 532 metres!

All three earn their places for an all-round performance - Burgess with two tries and one assist, Hiku with one try and three assists, and Evalds having produced an influential attacking display, with one try, one assist and three clean breaks across a staggering 199 metres.

It was derby delight for St Helens, as they beat Wigan on home soil and big Alex Walmsley's efforts did not go unnoticed. The veteran prop made a phenomenal 132 metres in just 17 carries, as well as seven tackle busts against their fierce rivals.

Morgan Knowles also emerged as Saints' top tackler in the Good Friday Derby, earning his spot in Round 6's Team of the Week.
