Leeds Rhinos name interesting pack for Leigh Centurions clash

Richard Agar has named a makeshift pick for Leeds Rhinos' trip to face Leigh Centurions.

Injury to Mikolaj Oledzki and the absence of captain Matt Prior due to Covid has left the Rhinos light in the middle, which has been compounded by the absence of Alex Mellor and Liam Sutcliffe.

Youngster Jarrod O'Connor has been handed a rare start after being named at loose forward, with marquee man Zane Tetevano starting in the front-row.

Morgan Gannon is also in the starting 13 as part of the back-row, meaning Tom Holroyd and Cameron Smith are on the bench.

Also on the bench is winger Luke Briscoe and hooker Brad Dwyer.

A strong backline sees Rob Lui and Luke Gale start together for the first time this season.

Rhinos: Myler, Handley, Hurrell, Newman, T Briscoe, Lui, Gale, Thompson, Leeming, Tetevano, Gannon, Martin, O'Connor. Subs: Dwyer, L Briscoe, Holroyd, Smith
