Jaded Dragons delivered blow by Hull's recall

Leeds Rhinos’ next opponents, Catalans Dragons, have suffered a fresh blow ahead of Thursday's visit to AMT Headingley.

- 

Rhinos will seal a top-four place in Betfred Super League if they avoid defeat in their final home fixture of the regular campaign.

Catalans, the only topflight team Leeds haven't beaten this season, are set to be without three players from the side that won at Salford Red Devils last week because of suspension.

And, now, Leeds-born hooker Denive Balmforth has been ruled out after Hull FC recalled him from his loan spell with the French club.
