JJB injury blow for Leeds

Leeds back-rower Jamie Jones-Buchanan is facing up to 12 weeks on the sidelines with a knee injury.

Jones-Buchanan, 31, joined the growing Rhinos injury list after being taken off in the defeat at Huddersfield.

The club have now confirmed that, although he does not require an operation, he will have his knee in a brace for six weeks, with a period of rehabilitation to follow.

They are hopeful that the England forward will return to action before the end of the regular season.
