Leeds Rhinos coach Rohan Smith is expected to bring in one or two forwards before the start of the 2024 season.
The Rhinos have accepted losing rising star Sam Walters, who looks to be joining Wigan Warriors. While the club intend to replace Liam Tindall internally, Smith confirmed their search to replace Walters will lead them to the open market. With that said, here are some options Leeds could look at on both sides of the pond.
Jai Whitbread
Without disrespecting Wakefield Trinity too much, Whitbread is a fish who could swim in a bigger pond. With his team expected to drop down into the Championship in 2024, there's no way a player of his calibre can be playing in the second tier.
