ROHAN SMINTH has confirmed that Leeds Rhinos star David Fusitu’a will be out for over two months.
Fusitu’a suffered an ankle injury a number of weeks ago, with Smith revealing that the winger went in for surgery last week.
Meanwhile, Derrell Olpherts has also been injured – a problem which he suffered early on in the defeat to Hull KR a fortnight ago.
“Fus had surgery last week and that will be a ten to 12 week injury,” Smith said.
“Derrell has had a calf injury, he got it early on against Hull KR, he has been injured.”
Morgan Gannon, however, will make his long-awaited comeback from concussion with the back-rower set to play for the Rhinos’ reserves on Friday night in the curtain raiser before the Leeds first-team goes up against Hull FC.
