Rohan Smith makes big decision on Leeds Rhinos star

Leeds Rhinos Head Coach Rohan Smith has named an unchanged 21 man squad from last week for this Thursday’s return to Betfred Super League action when the Rhinos travel to Castleford Tigers, kick off 8pm.

Paul Momirovski is included after suffering an ankle injury last week in the defeat against St Helens and will be monitored throughout the remainder of the week. He had a scan this week after the injury which originated against Catalans Dragons but was worsened against the Saints. Mickael Goudemand, James Donaldson, Alfie Edgell and Jack Sinfield are all back in consideration along with the 17 who faced Saints.

David Fusitu’a is still not ready to return after his surgery. He should return in the next few weeks.
