Harry Newman substitution explained as Leeds Rhinos star leaves field at half-time

HARRY NEWMAN has been substituted at half-time by Leeds Rhinos boss Rohan Smith – but it isn’t an injury.

In fact, it is part of his rehab the club announced on Twitter, saying: “Luis Roberts has come on for Harry Newman at half time in a planned replacement as Harry continues his return to full fitness with 40 minutes of action.”

The Leeds centre had enjoyed a great start in the first 40 minutes with a number of impressive touches.
