Super League clubs Leeds Rhinos and Hull FC suffer injury setbacks ahead of matches

Leeds Rhinos forward Keenan Palasia will miss up to six weeks after a foot injury ruled him out of the recent 28‑6 win over Catalans Dragons and the upcoming derby against Castleford Tigers. Winger Ryan Hall is also sidelined for a couple of weeks with a similar issue, while other forwards such as Mikolaj Oledzki and scrum‑half Jake Connor remain doubtful but are expected to play.

Hull FC winger Lewis Martin is unavailable for the clash with Leigh Leopards after failing a head‑injury assessment following a high tackle in the defeat to York Knights. The mandatory 11‑day stand‑down means he will miss the next game, and the club will rely on other backs for his place. Several other Hull players are listed as injured but expected to return later in the season.
