Leeds Rhinos head coach, Rohan Smith, has revealed his 21-man squad for the highly anticipated showdown against Wakefield Trinity, set to take place this Sunday at 3pm. With only one alteration to last week’s squad, half back Jack Sinfield makes a triumphant return after completing the necessary return-to-play protocol. Sinfield will be stepping in for Tom Holroyd, who unfortunately suffered a calf injury during warm-up and was unable to participate in the previous game.
However, the Rhinos are facing additional setbacks as several key players remain sidelined due to various injuries. The absence of David Fusitu’a, Harry Newman, Aidan Sezer, Zane Tetevano, Sam Lisone, and Morgan Gannon will undoubtedly pose challenges for the team.
The complete squad for the upcoming clash stands as follows:
- Richie Myler
- Nene MacDonald
- Ash Handley
- Blake Austin
- Mikolaj Oledzki
- James Bentley
- Rhyse Martin
- Cameron Smith
- Jarrod O’Connor
- Derrell Olpherts
- Justin Sangare
- James McDonnell
- Luke Hooley
- Sam Walters
- Liam Tindall
- Luis Roberts
- James Donaldson
- Corey Johnson
- Jack Sinfield
- Leon Ruan
- Alfie Edgell
With their formidable lineup, the Rhinos are primed and ready to take on Wakefield Trinity in what promises to be an exhilarating encounter. Fans eagerly await the kick-off as both teams look to secure a crucial victory on Sunday.
