JAMIE JONES-BUCHANAN LOOKING FORWARD TO ELLAND ROAD RETURN

Rhinos forward on Friday’s game.

Leeds Rhinos second rower Jamie Jones-Buchanan is looking forward to returning to play at Elland Road on Friday night.

Brian McDermott’s side take on Castleford Tigers at the home of Leeds United, looking for a second win, having defeated Hull Kingston Rovers 20-11 back in February.

The Rhinos come into the game on the back of a victory, having defeated table toppers St Helens last time out, and Jones-Buchanan was delighted with.

“Last Friday was a massive win for us,” said Jones-Buchanan.

“Looking at the form St Helens have been in at the start of this season has been unbelievable, so to go over there with a reduced team, with a lot of young players and get the win was absolutely fantastic.

“I had about 50 text messages on the way home and it gives us a lot of hope and desire to push on from that performance.

“Now we take on Castleford Tigers who are massive rivals and Elland Road is a home ground for a lot of the supporters, as a lot of Castleford and Rhinos fans support Leeds United.

“It will be a bumper crowd and great environment, Elland Road is a great stadium to play in and we really enjoy it.

“It is also the first competitive game between the two sides since the Grand Final, so there is also a bit in that.

“I know a few of the Cas lads, there are few ex Leeds players as well, who I really enjoy playing against.

“We won against Hull KR earlier in the season and hopefully we can get another win on Friday, but we know we will need a nine or ten out of ten performance to beat a good team like Cas.”
