Leeds coach Brian McDermott has named his 19-man squad for Saturday’s Challenge Cup final against Castleford Tigers at Wembley.

McDermott had already taken the somewhat unusual step of naming his matchday 17 at Monday’s pre-game press conference.

That line-up has been confirmed, with Stevie Ward and Mitch Achurch added to the party.

Leeds squad:

Zak Hardaker, Tom Briscoe, Joel Moon, Kallum Watkins, Ryan Hall, Danny McGuire, Kevin Sinfield, Jamie Peacock, Rob Burrow, Kylie Leuluai, Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Carl Ablett, Brett Delaney, Ian Kirke, Ryan Bailey, Liam Sutcliffe, Paul Aiton, Mitch Achurch, Stevie Ward.
