Leopards ensure Devils miss a semi-final spot

The star winger had been treated on the field after landing awkwardly in a tackle on Salford's Ryan Brierley on the hour mark in his side's 14-6 win, and eventually departed the field in a neck brace.

Earlier, Charnley had paved the way for his side's passage into the final four when he dived over for Leigh's opener to go clear in second place on the list of alltime Super League tryscorers with 248 to his name.

Moments after Charnley's exit, Edwin Ipape capped a superb perforindividual mance with Leigh's third, all but ensuring his side would extend a remarkable run that saw Adrian Lam's men scrape into the top six with 10 wins from their final 12 games in the regular season.
