Rhinos begin their Betfred Super League campaign against promoted Wakefield Trinity at AMT Headingley on Saturday and, while the team is unlikely to be much different from the one which crushed Wests Warriors in the Challenge Cup last weekend, some places are up for grabs.
In particular, three forwards could be competing for the final two places on the bench, while a couple of youngsters are vying to nail down the left-wing spot. Here’s how Rhinos could line up.
