Adrian Morley has raised a glass to Leeds Rhinos’ renaissance under Rohan Smith – and admits he would love to see his old club reach the Super League Grand Final tonight.
The eight-time Super League champions travel to Challenge Cup holders Wigan Warriors for a play-off semi-final where victory would take them to Old Trafford against St Helens or Salford. The Rhinos have had a rollercoaster few seasons since their last Grand Final success in 2017 and even this year, head coach Richard Agar quit following a disastrous start to the campaign.
But Morley is delighted to see the club where he began his career back throwing punches again – and is hoping they can deliver a knockout blow to Wigan.
