. Aidan Sezer
Sezer could have played his last game for Leeds. The scrum-half, who will join Wests Tigers next year, was concussed in training before the match at Hull on September 3 and is on a 28-day concussion protocol. Photo: Ed Sykes/SWpix.com

2. Harry Newman

4. Andy Ackers
Delayed-onset concussion has kept the hooker out of Rhinos' last three games. This weekend off gives him extra time to complete his return to play protocol and he could be in contention for the visit of London Broncos on July 6. Photo: Allan McKenzie/SWpix.com
5. Tom Holroyd
Missed the Leigh game because of concussion suffered the previous week at Hull, which was his first match for two months because of a similar issue. No return date has been given, but a second head knock could mean an extended layoff. Photo: Allan McKenzie/SWpix.com
6. James Bentley
The second-rower hasn't played since a concussion during the Easter win at Castleford Tigers, but is making good progress and hopes to be back on the field in July. Photo: Allan McKenzie/SWpix.com
