Leeds Rhinos • Re: Injures/ Suspension 2023
If Smith has no plans to use Edwards why would it make a difference? Its been said that Edwards wanted first team rugby this year but was told that wouldn't be happening. Smith doesn't seem keen to use teenagers, and Simpson might not have played many games even if he was fit, let alone Edwards.
We may only be without Newman/MacDonald for a couple of games, and behind them we've got Roberts, Olpherts, Martin, McDonnell, and Handley who can all play in the centres. I don't see the point in keeping Edwards at the club if he's 6th or 7th pick and unwilling to wait a year or so. I understand Edwards' views, but like I say if he was some kind of mega prospect he wouldn't be joining York - there are plenty of other SL sides who he could get a game for if he was ready.
