Rhinos are close to full-strength with all their top 17 squad numbers included in the 21-man squad. Arthur has confirmed stand-off Brodie Croft will return from a hamstring problem in place of knee injury victim George Brown and recent signing Jack Bird is in line for his debut off the bench. Here’s how Rhinos could line up as they battle to get back to winning ways following last week’s Betfred Challenge Cup defeat at Wakefield Trinity.

Brad Arthur has confirmed Chris Hankinson and Jack Bird, who'll be on the bench, are both in the 17. That suggests the former will start, which could mean a rest for veteran Ryan Hall. Photo: Allan McKenzie/SWpix.com
