Teenage talent Jack Sinfield’s chance will come, Leeds Rhinos coach Rohan Smith says.
Sinfield was Rhinos’ starting scrum-half for the final four games of last year after Aidan Sezer was ruled out through injury, but has yet to be picked this term with Matt Frawley dominating the role. Rhinos have turned down approaches to take Sinfield on loan and Smith insisted the youngster is “prepared to be patient”. “Jack is ready,” Smith said of the 19-year-old, who made his debut in 2022 and is in the 21-man squad for Friday’s visit of London Broncos.
He added: “You can’t find a blemish to Jack; maybe he is too nice, but he is super-competitive. He has got that gene and that streak in him, but he is a tremendous young bloke. “He is very accountable for his own performance, he is a very team-oriented person. He is hungry for an opportunity and we have been talking about what that pathway looks like and whether Championship footy might help him for a period of time, but mostly he wants to be playing for Rhinos.
