Leeds Rhinos boss Rohan Smith Smith expects to be without Aidan Sezer for some time after the Australian playmaker suffered an unusual dead leg.
Sezer, 31, is missing from the squad for Friday’s visit from Salford Red Devils having failed to recover from the injury picked up in their last outing against Leigh. Although it’s nearly a fortnight since that 20-6 defeat, he is still not right, meaning teenager Jack Sinfield could come into contention. Smith explained: “Seze suffered a really deep dead leg cork in his quad to the point where he was in a bad way at half-time.
“He couldn't really move in the back end of the first half. It will be a few weeks injury. Occasionally those bleeds go really deep and they become a relatively serious injury.”
