Leeds Rhinos rocked by Maika Sivo injury on eve of play-off semi-final

Leeds Rhinos winger Maika Sivo is doubtful for Friday's Super League playoff semifinal against Warrington Wolves after sustaining a shoulder injury in training on Wednesday. Although initial medical assessments have not fully ruled him out, his fitness remains in significant doubt ahead of kickoff. Sivo has scored 31 tries across 21 appearances this season.

Leeds manager Brad Arthur faces multiple absences, as Ash Handley, Lachie Miller, and Jack Bird are already ruled out with injuries. Arthur confirmed Fergie McCormack will start at fullback, with Riley Lumb expected to step in on the wing. The semifinal winner will face either Wigan Warriors or Wakefield Trinity in the Grand Final on October 3.
