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...
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...
Leon Ruan and Tom Nicholson-Watton are included after being recalled from loan spells in the Betfred Championship - with Doncaster and York Knights respectively - and fellow forward Justin Sangare is back in the squad following a one-match ban. Ex-New Zealand and Tonga Test winger David Fusitu’a has recovered from knee surgery and is set for his first appearance of 2024. Half-back Jack Sinfield and full-back Alfie Edgell both retain their squad place despite not featuring in the 21 against...

A couple of teams tipped to fall short this season are giving the leaders a run for their money, while several others - including one of 2023’s trophy winners - have yet to click into gear. There’s still a lot of rugby to be played and, for most sides, the campaign could yet go either way, but - taking into account last year’s performance and pre-season expectations - here’s how the YEP thinks the 12 clubs rate over the opening seven rounds, plus the Betfred Challenge Cup.
Winger Ash Handley and prop Tom Holroyd – who both started the last game, against Warrington Wolves two weeks ago – both miss out through injury, but Leeds have a specialist back in contention for both those roles. They have also recalled two players from loan at Betfred Championship clubs, boosting Smith’s options on the bench. After three successive home defeats – and a trio of losses in their last four league games – it’s a must-win match. Here’s how Rhinos could line up.
