Rohan Smith makes big Zak Hardaker decision for Leeds Rhinos against Warrington Wolves

After being trialled in his opening two games at centre and then at fullback, it looks as though Leeds Rhinos head coach Rohan Smith has found Zak Hardaker’s position.

Which one he would nail down seemed likely to be heading towards the number one shirt, but displacing Richie Myler would be a difficult task.

However, Smith has put Myler in the halves once more with Hardaker at fullback as Rhyse Martin continues in the centres alongside Liam Sutcliffe.

Leeds fans will also be happy to know that David Fusitu’a came through the win over Wakefield Trinity unscathed and takes his place outside Martin on the wing again.

Ash Handley occupies the other wing with Blake Austin partnering Myler once more in the halves.

Cameron Smith takes the loose-forward spot with Zane Tetevano and Mikolaj Oledzki in the front row alongside captain Kruise Leeming.

Youngster Morgan Gannon also gets the nod in the back row alongside Bodene Thompson whilst, Matt Prior, Brad Dwyer, Jarrod O’Connor – fresh from his new deal – and James Donaldson occupy the bench.
