Outside-back Riley Lumb and second-row Ben Littlewood have been drafted into Rhinos’ initial squad for today’s (Sunday) visit to Hull FC and will make their debut if selected. The 21 also includes full-back Alfie Edgell, with two Betfred Super League appearances to his name and centre Ned McCormack who made his first team debut against Warrington Wolves earlier this month. A fifth 19-year-old in the squad is half-back Jack Sinfield. He is yet to appear this season, but has featured 11 times...
Rhinos begin their Betfred Women’s Super League campaign at home to Huddersfield Giants on Friday (5.30pm), in a curtain-raiser to the men’s clash between the same clubs. It is Dainton’s second season with Leeds after she switched codes from Harlequins rugby union and the 36-year-old forward has committed herself to league, with the blessing of her Army bosses. “I am quite lucky at the minute, they just let me play rugby,” she said. “Unless I am called into work I have free rein to train,...
The Leeds-born prop was brought in on Tuesday to begin a two-week deal, but suffered an injury in the final training session ahead of Friday’s visit of London Broncos and is now in doubt for next week’s game at Leigh Leopards. Speaking at his weekly preview press conference this morning (Thursday), coach Craig Lingard said: “Sam has unfortunately just pulled up in the team run today, so he's going to be missing this week. “That's a bit of a blow for us. We brought him in for a reason, to give us...
With four senior forwards ruled out, Rhinos coach Rohan Smith has named front-rower Tom Nicholson-Watton and second-row/prop Leon Ruan in his initial 21-man squad. Nicholson-Watton, who was on loan at York Knights, made his only first team appearance for Rhinos as a substitute against Castleford Tigers in the final game of 2023. Ruan, recalled from Doncaster, has played eight times as a substitute for Leeds, including three this season. The duo could be competing for a place on the bench, but...
Almost £13m will be spent on energy efficiency improvements to 350 back-to-back houses in Armley and Holbeck.

Improvements will be carried out on 250 homes in Holbeck and 100 in Armley. Parts of Armley eligible for the scheme include the Cedars, which is in the ten per cent most deprived areas of the UK. A...
Hull are also understood to be close to signing former Leeds Rhinos winger Tom Briscoe from the same club, with back Derrell Olpherts going the other way. Briscoe played for Hull from 2008-2013 and then had nine seasons with Leeds before joining Leigh ahead of the 2023 campaign. He is a former Rhinos teammate of Hull’s new director of rugby Richie Myler. Chamberlain, who can operate in the outside-backs and back-row, has also played for Salford Red Devils and London Broncos. The 28-year-old made...
Rhinos are without both first-choice wingers, a centre, one of their two leading props and a pair of second-rowers and seven of the 21-man squad have fewer than 10 first team appeareances to their name. With two of the starting team in last week’s defeat by Huddersfield Giants unavailable, coach Rohan Smith will have to make changes and teenagers Riley Lumb and Ben Littlewood have come into the initial group. Hull also have key men missing ahead of what is a crunch game for both teams. Here’s...

A run of four successive home defeats has left Rhinos out of the Betfred Challenge Cup and eighth in Betfred Super League with almost a third of the regular season completed. There were boos from the stands after last Friday’s 30-24 defeat to Huddersfield Giants at AMT Headingley and some fans have called for a change of coach. But speaking ahead of Sunday’s game at second-bottom Hull FC, Smith, who took charge two years ago and masterminded a turnaround which led Rhinos to the 2022 Grand Final,...
