Aidan Sezer misses out as Leeds Rhinos bring in youngsters for St Helens clash

Leeds Rhinos will be without Aidan Sezer for their clash with St Helens. Sezer, who has endured a troubled start to life at Headingley, has been withdrawn due to an unspecified injury.

That has resulted in Liam Sutcliffe being moved into the halves and as a result, Jack Broadbent is recalled at centre for his second appearance of the season. Brad Dwyer also drops out and is replaced by Muizz Mustapha, who gets the nod for the first time this year. Dwyer is suspended after a trip that saw him sin-binned last week.

Mustapha features after the Rhinos confirmed that both Alex Mellor and Bodene Thompson were unavailable through injury. Jarrod O'Connor, who started in the game against Castleford Tigers, drops to the bench and replaced by Cameron Smith.

St Helens are without Alex Walmsley, the England international has lost a race against time to be fit. But Morgan Knowles is back and James Roby plays his 500th game for the champions. Youngster Jon Bennison comes in for Regan Grace.

Rhinos: Jack Walker, Liam Tindall, Jack Broadbent, Tom Briscoe, Ash Handley, Blake Austin, Liam Sutcliffe, Mikolaj Oledzki, Kruise Leeming, Matt Prior, Rhyse Martin, James Bentley, Cameron Smith. Subs: Jarrod O'Connor, James Donaldson, Muizz Mustapha, Morgan Gannon.
