Kruise Leeming could be poised to make his first Giants Super League appearance of the season.

The 19-year-old hooker has been included in Huddersfield’s 19-man squad for Thursday’s home clash against leaders Leeds Rhinos.

He takes the place of Luke Robinson, who is carrying a couple of niggles, in what is the only change to the squad on duty for last Friday’s 24-4 win at Hull FC.

And that means there’s no recall for on-loan Hull KR forward Jordan Cox, who missed the trip to the KC Stadium due to illness.

Giants: Scott Grix, Jermaine McGillvary, Leroy Cudjoe, Joe Wardle, Aaron Murphy, Danny Brough, Eorl Crabtree, Craig Huby, Jack Hughes, Michael Lawrence, Craig Kopczak, Kyle Wood, Ukuma Ta’ai, Jodie Broughton, Anthony Mullally, Jamie Ellis, Jake Connor, Josh Johnson, Kruise Leeming.

Referee: Richard Silverwood.
