Halfback Aidan Sezer suffered an injury in Leeds’ defeat last time out against Leigh Leopards, leaving head coach Rohan Smith with a problem to solve in the halves heading into their clash with Salford Red Devils at Headingley on Friday night.
Sezer came off shortly into the second half with a quad issue, with the severity somewhat unknown. Smith gave a prognosis on the injury in his pre-match press conference, confirming he was set for a spell on the sidelines.
He said: “He suffered a really deep dead leg cork contusion, really deep in his quad to the point he was in a bad way at half time and couldn’t really move the back-end of the first half. It’s going to be a few weeks of injury, occasionally those bleeds go really deep and become a relatively serious injury."
