Frain and Dainton return for Rhinos

Leeds Rhinos Women play their final group game of the Betfred Women’s Challenge Cup this Sunday against Huddersfield Giants at Laund Hill, KO 2pm.

Elle Frain returns to the squad following her shoulder injury that she picked up in the league game against Giants, but Caitlin Beevers who was also injured in that game is still unavailable.

Bethan Dainton also returns for the Rhinos after winning the Inter Service title with Army last week against the Royal Navy. Georgia Hale, who announced she will be joining Gold Coast Titans next month is still available to play in this fixture and Ruby Enright is given the call up to the squad from the Academy after featuring for the Rhinos in the Nines.

Keara Bennett misses out this week after taking a knock in training and Shannon Lacey, Elychia Watson, Orla McCallion and Evie Cousins are all still ruled out with longer term injuries.
