It's undeniable that Leeds Rhinos' quench for victories remains high. Victory over Toulouse Olympique last week has somewhat eased the pressure but the Rhinos remain in a pretty lousy position seven points adrift of the play-offs.
The visit of Hull KR, who will no doubt have one eye on a Challenge Cup semi-final next week, would usually be the perfect opportunity to try and find another win to put them on a run. In reality, the more pressing issue is making sure they don't lose any more players.
The Rhinos have named a 21-man squad that isn't fully available due to Zak Hardaker's seizure. Among the remaining 20 players are five teenagers, of which four are most likely to play. Just like last year, Leeds have an injury crisis.
