Experienced men rested and a historic debut in predicted Leeds Rhinos line up for Castleford Tigers

Picking the team for Easter Monday is always problematic for head coaches, but for Jamie Jones-Buchanan, selecting his seventeen for Leeds Rhinos' game with Castleford Tigers is particularly tricky. The Rhinos have lost Jack Walker to a hamstring injury, leaving them short of yet another spine player. Richie Myler, Aidan Sezer and Corey Johnson are all still on the sidelines and as a result, the Rhinos are seriously short of options in creative areas.

Arise Jack Sinfield.

It appears that the time may well have arrived for the Rhinos to unleash Sinfield junior who is, of course, Kevin Sinfield's 17-year-old son. The interim coach had hinted that it may be too soon for the teenager but with Sezer still struggling with a groin problem, he may have little choice but to throw the youngster in at the deep end after his heroics in the club's under 18s triumph over Wigan Warriors on Thursday.
