O'Neill and Lauitiiti return for Rhinos Sat June 3, 2006 Source: www.leedsrugby.com Tony Smith has recalled Mark O'Neill and Ali Lauitiiti to the Rhinos for the crunch Powergen Challenge Cup quarter final against Harlequins RL at Headingley Carnegie this Sunday, kick off 4:05pm. O'Neill suffered a shoulder injury against Rochdale in the previous round of the Cup that forced him to miss last Friday's heroic 30-0 win over rivals Bradford Bulls. Lauitiiti was named in the initial 18 man squad for that match but missed out on selection for the squad on the night. However, like O'Neill he is expected to feature in the squad for Sunday's televised clash. Great Britain international Ryan Bailey and second row Ian Kirke are the two players to miss out from the 20 man squad named earlier this week by Rhinos Head Coach Tony Smith as Leeds look to book their place in the semi final of the Cup for the 12th time in 14 seasons. The 18 man squad in full is: 2. Scott Donald 3. Chev Walker 4. Keith Senior 5. Lee Smith 6. Danny McGuire 7. Rob Burrow 9. Matt Diskin 10. Jamie Peacock 11. Ali Lauitiiti 12. Gareth Ellis 13. Kevin Sinfield (c) 14. Shane Millard 16. Willie Poching 17. Mark O'Neill 18. Jamie Jones-Buchanan 19. Chris Feather 20. Nick Scruton 26. Danny Williams News sent by: www.leedsrugby.com O'Neill set for comeback Wed April 5, 2006 Source: www.leedsrugby.com Leeds Rhinos forward Mark O?Neill will make his long awaited comeback this Saturday for the club's Senior Academy side against Hull at Hull Ionians RUFC, kick off 2pm. O'Neill, who joined the Rhinos in the close season from Australian Champions Wests Tigers, has not played since suffering a shoulder injury on his debut after five minutes in the Tetley?s Festive Challenge against Wakefield on Boxing Day. However, after returning to full training a fortnight ago, O'Neill is now ready to step up his recovering programme with a game this Saturday. The Rhinos side also includes Nathan McAvoy, Ashley Gibson, Danny Williams, Jordan Tansey and Carl Ablett who have all featured for the Rhinos first team this season. Commenting on the return of O'Neill Head Coach Tony Smith said, "This week was always the timetabled return for Mark and it will be good for him to get a game under his belt. It was unfortunate for Mark to pick up the injury so early on in his Leeds career but I know he is keen to get out there and show everyone what he can do and get over the set back as soon as possible." The Senior Academy team in full is: 1. James Endersby 2. Dale Harris 3. Nathan McAvoy 4. Ashley Gibson 5. Danny Williams 6. Charles I?Anson 7. Jordan Tansey 8. Luke Burgess 9. Jamie I?Anson 10.
