Two tries each from Paul Momirovski and Lachie Miller help Leeds overcome struggling Castleford Tigers.
Paul Momirovski's first Super League tries helped Leeds Rhinos extend Castleford's winless start to the season to six matches.
The ex-Sydney and Penrith centre ran in a second score shortly afterwards, with Lachie Miller adding two more tries.Leeds move up to fifth, level on points with all four teams above them ahead of the rest of the weekend's games. The second was more orthodox, with the centre finding space on the right wing to storm home to the right of the posts.
Simm's score briefly threatened a late comeback, but Miller capped off a fine individual display by scoring his second try, after Croft had broken the line in centre field."It was a really tough night. In that first half they played the conditions really well and kept us in our corner. I think we had six or seven drop-outs in a row.
