Liv Whitehead needs 10 points to hit 100 career points for the Rhinos, Ruby Walker needs 10 points to hit 100 career points for the Rhinos. Alongside nine tries for the Rhinos, she has also been accurate with the boot, kicking 27 goals. Izzy Northrop needs 10 points to hit 150 career points for the Rhinos. The England international has 35 tries since debuting in 2023 and is currently the club's fifth all-time leading try scorer.
