Rhinos face Warrington Wolves at AMT Headingley today (Saturday) in the reserves showpiece before the clubs' academy sides meet a week later at HJ Stadium for the under-18s title decider.

Both Grand Finals see the top two sides in the table go head-to-head, with the league leaders having home advantage.

Chev Walker, who coaches both Rhinos' lower-grade teams, said: "We'll have a similar side to the one we've had all year. There'll be a sprinkling of fringe first-team players, but the majority of them are eligible under-18s. It is strong, we have a good bunch. A lot of them will be playing next week as well and it's the same for them [Warrington] as well."
