Croft set for first Rhinos appearance in Donaldson testimonial
Leeds Rhinos Head Coach Rohan Smith has named his 21-man squad for this Sunday's clash with Hull KR in the James Donaldson's Testimonial, kick off 2.30pm at AMT Headingley.
New signings Lachie Miller, Matt Frawley, Brodie Croft and Andy Ackers will get the chance to impress whilst Harry Newman and Rhyse Martin will make their first appearances of pre-season. Morgan Gannon is also back available for selection after completing the return to play protocol.
The Rhinos are without new signing Paul Momirovski, who is in Australia on planned leave and will return to training next week. Tom Holroyd, James Bentley, Sam Lisone, James McDonnell, Mickael Goudemand and Kieran Hudson are not risked this week as they continue their recovery from injury, none of which are long term lay offs ahead of the season. Young forward Ben Littlewood is included after playing in the pre-season games against Wakefield and Bradford.
