Leeds Rhinos Women welcome back Keara Bennett and Lacey Owen to their squad for Sunday’s Betfred Women’s Challenge Cup semi-final against St Helens at the Eco Power Stadium, Doncaster, KO 1pm.

Bennett and Owen have missed the last two Cup games through injury, but are now back available for Lois Forsell’s squad as the team look to book their place in the Final at Wembley.

Georgia Elliston misses out this week after picking up a foot injury alongside longer term injured players Caitlin Beevers (knee), Lill Seal (ankle), Evie Cousins (hamstring) and Sophie Nuttall (ankle)

Both teams qualified for the final four with high-scoring wins in their quarter finals as the Rhinos confidently defeated Cardiff Demons 68-0 at AMT Headingley, whilst Saints also scored 68 points in their victory over Barrow Raiders.
