Richard Agar has again been forced into a number of changes for Leeds Rhinos' Super League clash with Huddersfield Giants on Thursday.
Injuries and suspension have once again robbed Agar of a number of key players, with half-back Luke Gale the latest to be ruled out for a prolonged period after suffering a knee injury against Leigh Centurions last weekend.
Konrad Hurrell was also injured in that game, and while he is named in Agar's 21-man squad for the game, he is described as a doubt due to the foot problem picked up against the Centurions.
Rhyse Martin is also suspended after receiving a one-match ban from the RFL's disciplinary panel, but King Vuniyayawa and Callum McLelland will return after completing their return to play protocol after suffering head injuries. Captain Matt Prior remains unavailable after testing positive for Covid-19.
The Rhinos have included young duo Corey Hall and Levi Edwards in the squad despite being on loan at York and Batley respectively, and they remain on standby for the game should they be required.
It will be a special occasion at Emerald Headingley on Thursday, with Rhinos legend Rob Burrow MBE the guest of honour on the night his new autobiography, Too Many Reasons To Live, is officially launched.
Leeds Rhinos 21-man squad: Tom Briscoe, Harry Newman, Konrad Hurrell, Ash Handley, Rob Lui, Kruise Leeming, Zane Tetevano, Brad Dwyer, Richie Myler, Cameron Smith, Tom Holroyd, King Vuniyayawa, Bodene Thompson, Sam Walters, Callum McLelland, Luke Briscoe, James Donaldson, Jarrod O'Connor, Corey Hall, Levi Edwards, Morgan Gannon.
