Rohan Smith has made two changes to the Leeds Rhinos side for their clash with Catalans Dragons. Corey Johnson will make his first appearance of the season after being named on the bench while Sam Walters has also been recalled and will start against Steve McNamara's powerful pack.
James Bentley (suspended) and Luis Roberts are the two players to drop out, with the latter due to play for Bradford Bulls this week. Despite the minimal changes in personnel, there are positional changes across the side. Rhyse Martin will play at centre and Nene Macdonald on the wing. That sees Derrell Olpherts drop to the bench. Martin's back-row spot is taken by Zane Tetevano, whose move to the back-row has paved the way for Walters to start.
Olpherts is set to replace Harry Newman at some point, with the centre expected to play around an hour of the match as he continues to build his fitness. It means the Rhinos are only running with two larger bodies on the bench against one of the biggest packs in the competition.
