Sam Walters missed the game and another front-rower, Justin Sangare, limped off early in the second half, but there could be some good news before Rhinos’ next match, against Warrington Wolves.
Here’s Rhinos’ latest injury list and potential return dates.

4. Zane Tetevano
The Cook Islands and former New Zealand Test forward was ruled out “indefinitely” after suffering a stroke at training in May. He has undergone surgery to fix a hole in his heart and is hopeful of playing again before the season ends. Photo: Alex Whitehead/SWpix.com
5. Justin Sangare
The French prop hobbled out of the defeat by Leigh with a suspected plantar fascia (foot) injury. He missed two games after suffering a similar problem in June, but this is more serious and could be season-ending. Photo: Ed Sykes/SWpix.com
6. Morgan Gannon
Gannon, a second-rower, sustained an ankle injury in the home clash with St Helens on May 26. He had surgery and could be in available for the Warrington game, when he may be an option at stand-off. Photo: Allan McKenzie/SWpix.com
