Here’s who got the Albert Goldthorpe Medal points this week as the best performers in each Super League match…
Wigan Warriors 32-22 Castleford Tigers
Jai Field’s running from deep continues to cause problems and he was rewarded with a wonder try in the second half.
3 pts – Jai Field (Wigan Warriors)
2 pts – Oliver Partington (Wigan Warriors)
1 pt – Joe Westerman (Castleford Tigers)
Catalans Dragons 18-10 Hull Kingston Rovers
Sam Tomkins may have trembled under one or two of Jordan Abdull’s steepling bombs, but he was rock solid everywhere else, providing enterprise, effort and some rare finesse in an otherwise scrappy slog.
3 pts – Sam Tomkins (Catalans Dragons)
2 pts – Jordan Abdull (Hull Kingston Rovers)
1 pt – Josh Drinkwater (Catalans Dragons)
Salford Red Devils 26-12 Leeds Rhinos
High-profile signing Brodie Croft has his best game yet in a Red Devils shirt, involved in almost everything that was good from Salford.

2 pts – Joe Burgess (Salford Red Devils)

2 pt – Jordan Crowther (Wakefield Trinity)
1 pt – Matty Ashurst (Wakefield Trinity)
Toulouse Olympique 22-20 St Helens

3 pts – Chris Hankinson (Toulouse Olympique)
2 pts – Lucas Albert (Toulouse Olympique)
1 pt – Matty Russell (Toulouse Olympique)
Hull FC 14-6 Huddersfield Giants
