West Park take over as Hullensians fall
Yorkshire Two
The leading six teams are still separated by just two league points, but Hullensians were knocked off the top when they suffered an unexpected 30-14 defeat on their visit to Ripon.
West Park Leeds took over at the top with a 25-5 home win over West Leeds, while North Ribblesdale moved up to second place despite being pushed all the way for their 15-13 home win over ninth-placed Barnsley.
Centre Stuart McClure, winger Alistair Booth and No 8 John Fletcher scored for West Park, and Conor Armstrong kicked two penalties and two conversions.
Pocklington took full advantage of Goole's current weaknesses by scoring a 62-10 home victory, leaving their opponents still chasing their first win after 12 league matches.
Back-row Dan Wilson and winger Dan Pickard scored two tries each, while others came from scrum-half Mark Stringer, flanker Jack Holbrough and front-rows Dave Birch and Chris Morton. Nick Bennett kicked six conversions and a penalty.
Prop Steven Berry touched down and stand-off Steve Rockett kicked a penalty as Knottingley beat Doncaster Phoenix 8-0.
