Leeds Rhinos have been dealt some significant injury blows ahead of their clash with Wigan Warriors. Ash Handley and Blake Austin have both been ruled out of the clash.
England international Handley has an illness while a calf problem has kept Blake Austin out of the side. That has seen Morgan Gannon moved into the halves while Derrell Olpherts has been recalled for the first time in almost two months. The former Castleford man hasn't featured since enduring a torrid evening against Hull KR on March 31st.
Aidan Sezer returns after a quad injury, James McDonnell has been cleared after an arm injury and there's also a place on the bench for Corey Johnson. Tom Holroyd is recalled to the starting line-up, with Sam Lisone moving to the bench.
