After a miserable start to the campaign for York Knights, the clouds lifted on a glorious afternoon at the LNER Community Stadium.

The Knights went into their round five clash with Bradford Bulls as the only winless side in the Championship, a far cry from the closing stages of last season when they won 10 of their final 11 games to qualify for the play-offs. York have carried their selection issues into 2024 but Andrew Henderson refused to make excuses before the game and got the performance he craved as the Knights gave their season lift-off.

York made the breakthrough when veteran centre Jimmy Keinhorst picked Jordan Thompson's pass up off his toes to touch down. Myles Harrison knocked over the conversion and then added a penalty following a ball steal by the creaking Bulls. The home crowd had a performance to get behind and cranked the volume up another notch after Charlie Severs was floored by a huge shot from Taufua.
