Second-rower Chris Hankinson has recovered from concussion and returns to the initial squad in place of Ben Littlewood (hamstring) in what could be a straight swap, but coach Brad Arthur will have to find a replacement for top try scorer Maika Sivo -who suffered a broken arm during last Sunday’s defeat of Bradford Bulls – on the left-wing. The team boss has confirmed teenage forward Zak Lloyd will make his debut and Ash Handley, Ryan Hall, Keenan Palasia and Danny Levi all remain on the casualty list. Here’s how Rhinos could line up.
