Leeds Rhinos housekeeping: Mason Lino, Sam Lisone future and Aidan Sezer return

Why James Bentley has been in a knee brace
Very precautionary. Had he not been following the concussion protocols, he wouldn't have been wearing a brace.

Zane Tetevano's reaction to red card and suspension
He's responded well, he's got on with working hard and playing his part in the team preparing this weekend. Clearly, disappointed at the moment it happened and then disappointed again to be suspended, but that's the decision that was made so he's copped it on the chin and tried to move forward.

Sam Lisone's future after Georgia Hale's departure
Sam is committed to Leeds, nothing has changed there. Georgia has got a great opportunity, I believe, in a growing, expanding competition that's the premier competition for ladies in the world. That's as much as I know but I do know Sam is very committed to his long-term future at the Rhinos.

Lisone's form
His form has been pretty steady for a good period of time now. He's certainly had some impact and contributed to a middle unit that's been solid-ish, but it's something we're looking for a bit more from that middle unit moving forward, and another great opportunity to do that this weekend.

More to come?
It's a conversation we had this morning actually. We think he's had impact and a presence but there's more there as well which I think there is with a bunch of guys. They're steady away but we're looking for a bit more than that.

Will Aidan Sezer play?
He'll be back this week

Jack Sinfield's absence
Jack's going through the concussion protocol and going through his exams the next couple of weeks, so we'll be taking a cautious approach there and making sure he's getting the best of everything that he needs.

Mason Lino
I've not had a conversation with Mason or his management. I did say hello to Mason after we played Wakefield but that's the extent of it. He's a good player, I've known Mason a long time but there has been zero communication as far as a contract goes to my knowledge.
