Sports Mole rounds up all the action from Friday evening's games in the Super League.

Leeds Rhinos have strengthened their hold on fourth place in the Super League table with a narrow two-point victory over Wakefield Trinity Wildcats this evening.

Ben Jones-Bishop added two tries in the first half to ensure that the hosts were ahead at half time, despite Andy Raleigh having briefly given Wakefield the lead in the 28th minute.

After a strong start to the second half, Joel Moon found the try line for Rhinos, but the visitors responded, as Ali Lauitiiti moved Wakefield to within two points of Leeds' score.

After another Leeds try, Frankie Mariano brought Wakefield back into the match again with just two minutes remaining, but the Wildcats could not produce another try-scoring move.

A late try from Bradford Bulls' Matt Diskin condemned Hull FC to their fifth consecutive defeat in the Super League.

Bradford had fallen behind early on, but scores from Jarrod Sammut and Elliott Kear ensured that they were in a commanding position at the break.

Danny Tickle crossed the whitewash to level the scores in the 52nd minute, but Luke Gale was able to restore the hosts lead with a drop goal five minutes from full time, before Diskin forced his way over in the final seconds of the game.

A hat-trick from Adam Lawton helped Widnes Vikings to a heavy win over London Broncos.

First-half tries from Jack Owens, Joe Mellor and Lawton helped Widnes to a commanding lead at half time, with the visitors struggling in defence.

Owens and Lawton both added further tries after the break, with Hep Cahill also getting on the scoreboard.

Two tries in as many minutes from Shane Grady and Ryan Shaw gave London some hope, but they were unable to extend their attacking spell.

Salford City Reds secured a narrow win over Catalans Dragons to increase the gap to the bottom of the table.

Andrew Dixon gave the home side the lead after just six minutes, but neither side were able to add to the score before the half-time siren.

The try proved vital, as both sides added two tries after the break, with little between the two teams throughout the contest.

Results in full: Leeds Rhinos 20-18 Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, Salford City Reds 16-12 Catalans Dragons, Widnes Vikings 38-12 London Broncos, Bradford Bulls 19-12 Hull FC
