Leeds Rhinos cause a stir as 'Guest player' named on team sheet for New Zealand clash

It is perhaps the most bizarre team sheet ever seen. On Saturday, Leeds Rhinos take on New Zealand in a World Cup warm-up match for the Kiwis at Headingley, but the Leeds team is quite bizarre.

It features several of the club's existing players, among them several stars, such as Brad Dwyer and Tom Briscoe, who will play their final games for the club. However, Rohan Smith's squad also includes players from the past, such as Adam Cuthbertson and Jimmy Keinhorst, as well as one from the future in new signing Luke Hooley.

It even includes players who have never played for the Rhinos before. Former New Zealand internationals Junior Sa'u and Elijah Taylor are also included in the line-up. However, it is the involvement of one unnamed player that is causing all the talk.
