Leeds sweat over JJB fitness

James Gordon

Leeds second-rower Jamie Jones-Buchanan is a doubt for Saturday’s clash against Wigan, but has been named in an unchanged 19 man squad for the clash at the DW Stadium.

Jones-Buchanan, 30, picked up a leg injury in the win over Hull KR last Friday, and hasn’t taken part in a full training session all week.

Head Coach Brian McDermott said,: “Jamie Jones-Buchanan is being looked after by the medical staff to make sure he is right. Hopefully he will be involved come Saturday night and we will wait for advice from the medical team before we make a decision.”

Squad: Webb, Watkins, Hardaker, Hall, McGuire, Burrow, Leuluai, McShane, Peacock, Jones-Buchanan, Ablett, Sinfield, Smith, Delaney, Bailey, Clarkson, Hauraki, Griffin, Moore.
