Leeds Rhinos make subtle change to squad to face Hull FC

Rohan Smith has made just one change to the Leeds Rhinos squad to take on Hull FC. Young halfback Jack Sinfield replaces Leon Ruan in what is a familiar squad for the Rhinos ahead of Friday's bout.

It means all 17 members of last week's side that defeated Huddersfield Giants are in contention to feature, as well as James Donaldson and Sam Walters, who impressed for Bradford Bulls in their victory over Halifax Panthers on Monday.

It leaves Smith with further selection headaches in his pack. Walters has impressed during his games for the Rhinos but has found himself out of the team when all the other senior forwards have been available.

Derrell Olpherts remains out of the squad after his difficult evening against Hull KR last month. Morgan Gannon is still getting up to full speed after his HIA sustained earlier in the season while David Fusitu'a is still recovering from an ankle injury.
