Predicted Leeds Rhinos team with Rohan Smith to have close look at potential new fullback

Leeds head coach Rohan Smith has some enforced changes to make after halfback Aidan Sezer’s injury setback during the Round 10 defeat to Leigh Leopards.

When probed on his potential options during his pre-match press conference, Smith admitted Jack Sinfield would come into his thinking after being named in the 21-man squad, but added that Richie Myler was also being considered. The latter would see Ash Handley move to the fullback role Smith has been keen to use him in during the year. This seems the most likely scenario. Handley was used almost exclusively at fullback during the off-season, which suggests it is an option he wants to explore.

That would mean Liam Tindall will be given a chance on the wing, meaning the Rhinos will line up the same in the backs as they did last time out against Leigh after Sezer came off at half-time.
