O'Connor set to return for Rhinos

Leeds Rhinos Head Coach Brad Arthur welcomes back hooker Jarrod O'Connor for this Sunday's Betfred Super League derby clash with Bradford Bulls at AMT Headingley kick off 3pm.

O'Connor missed last Sunday's defeat at Castleford as he followed the return to play protocol followed delayed effects of concussion against Catalans Dragons. The Rhinos are without Danny Levi and Chris Hankinson from the loss to the Tigers, both ruled out through concussion. They join Ryan Hall (foot), Ash Handley (Appendicitis), Keenan Palasia (foot), Max Simpson (knee) and George Brown (knee) on the sidelines.  

Brad Arthur in his weekly pre-match press conference confirmed that young forward Ben Littlewood will start against the Bulls.
