Newman and Croft return for Rhinos

Leeds Rhinos Head Coach Rohan Smith has named his 21 man squad to travel to St Helens this Friday with stars Harry Newman and Brodie Croft returning to the squad.  

New loan signing Matty Russell could make his debut after coming to AMT Headingley from Warrington Wolves last week. The Scottish international will give the Rhinos cover on the wings with both Riley Lumb and David Fusitu'a both sidelined through injury. 

Leeds are still without Paul Momirovski, James Donaldson, Tom Holroyd and James Bentley whilst Morgan Gannon was ruled out this week for the remainder of the season.
