Leeds Rhinos are pursuing a Championship opportunity for youngster Oli Field. Rugby League Live understands that a number of clubs in the second tier have been offered the 20-year-old's services on a loan deal for the opening stages of the campaign.
Field, who is capable of playing both in the halves or at loose forward, featured in the pre-season games and caught the eye during a string of cameo appearances. Now, Rohan Smith is hoping to aid his development with a stint away from the club, a similar tale to last season.
He featured for both Cornwall and Oldham in League 1 last year, scoring two tries for the Roughyeds in the process. He also played five games for the reserve grade side last season. Previously, he has played for England at youth level in 2019.
