Mikolaj Oledzki is closing in on his return to Leeds Rhinos action: but it will not be this week. Oledzki underwent shoulder surgery after last year's Rugby League World Cup, which has so far ruled him out of Leeds' first five games of the new campaign.
There was some hope he could feature against unbeaten Catalans Dragons this Saturday, as the Rhinos look to secure a third win of the season. But Rohan Smith confirmed: "Not this week, no."
However, there is good news on the way, with Smith also revealing that Oledzki's rehabilitation is progressing well and Leeds fans could see him feature as early as the next fortnight.
