Leeds Rhinos boss Rohan Smith has told fans not to panic about worrying pre-season displays insisting: “It’s part of the plan.” Last year’s beaten Grand Finalists kick-off the Super League season at Warrington on Thursday.
But many of their faithful fear the worst after losing three of their four friendly outings. Smith has also played some players out of their regular positions but the Aussie insisted: “We’re in good condition.
“We haven’t played as cohesively as we’d like but we’ve looked pretty fit and ready for combat. Fortunately, there’s no competition points given out so far. It (trying things) is part of the plan in many cases. We’ll be ready to have a good crack at Warrington.”
