Mixed Leeds Rhinos news as Aidan Sezer injury countered by returnee for Salford

Leeds Rhinos have made two changes to their squad for the clash with Salford Red Devils - with Morgan Gannon finally making his return. The young back-rower hasn't featured since suffering a concussion over two months ago but has now completed his staged return.

He successfully returned to action with the reserves and is now in line to make a full return to Rohan Smith's squad. He is one of two changes, with James Donaldson also in the 21-man squad.

However, Aidan Sezer will not take part after sustaining a quad injury in the defeat to Leigh Leopards. The halfback pulled out during the half-time interval and has not been cleared to return this week. Luis Roberts has also dropped out.

It means Ash Handley could be given a stint at fullback, with Richie Myler moved into the halves, as was the case once Sezer pulled out at Leigh Sports Village.

Leeds Rhinos' 21-man squad: Richie Myler, Harry Newman, Nene Macdonald, Ash Handley, Blake Austin, Mikolaj Oledzki, Zane Tetevano, James Bentley, Rhyse Martin, Cameron Smith, Jarrod O'Connor, Sam Lisone, Justin Sangare, Tom Holroyd, James McDonnell, Morgan Gannon, Sam Walters, Liam Tindall, James Donaldson, Corey Johnson, Jack Sinfield.
