if its only a friendly then i'd expect more than a 4 man bench, new zealand might want to put out a team that resembles their test team but leeds could in theory play their entire squad

I understand a request was also made for Ian Kirke to play but I assume this was turned down. Achurch has signed for Newcastle Knights.

Are you allowed to play with a pair of crutches and a leg splint

, Kirke's had micro fracture surgery on his knee. More chance of Captain Kirke playing mate.

I think people will see a lot more than 17 players used.

I'm well chuffed for Morley, finishing his career with that $hithouse red devil shower of $hite organisation was disrespectful to moz and his career. I think it's great what GH has done and can help amend that scenario.

Nobody is going to play who is still at another club, what if they did a JJB or Stevie Ward type injury and ended up 6 months or more out injured. Morley retired 3 weeks ago, hardly the same as suggestion you could get Senior or McDermott for example.

Plus it's a far more fitting a send off for Morley rather than the stumbling through the Middle 8's with the saga that is Salford he went though. Whilst part of me thought it would be quite fitting if that club failed in the Middle 8's, it would've been a very disappointing scenario for Morley to end his career like that.

Historically tour games have been classed as proper first team games. Hopefully this will too.

As for Morley, a nice touch. I remember him on his home debut for Leeds, and saw him twice be easily GB's best forward in absolute hammerings here against Australia. He was the first ex-Leeds player I really followed in the NRL, although with his tackling "technique" it always seemed a matter of time before he flattened someone illegally. It certainly made it interesting to watch.

No!Iestyn is soiled goods now he has been at Wigan,plus the fact he did not bother to attend his own presentation just like Ryan Bailey.

Will Morley be listed on the teamsheet as "Tommy Smith"?

It didn't work well the first time he used his alter ego

Ali is playing after all, that's what I was told and just been confirmed.

Well you've got half your wish anyway...

Now all we need is Big Keith Senior in for Watkins and Brent Webb is Superman in for Hardaker. Mint!

Apparently Ali Lauitiiti has signed for Leeds Rhinos today

Schofield has stated on Twitter he's had to turn down the chance to play, as he has a prior engagement Darts night for his testimonial

So glad I booked my tickets early for this one. It should be a great night, a Send off for the triumvirate, chance to see the Kiwis up close and now a chance to sing for a couple of returning (for one night only) Leeds Legends as well, doubtless it will be a bit emotional too.

....and now Ali in too

Hearing Ali was also playing was enough to get me to open my wallet and let the moths out. 2 tickets purchased for me and the youngest for the Southstand. Only seats left now are 1 here, 1 there, so if you wanted a seat looks like you've missed out.

Can't wait to see the Leeds Legends again.

Chev Walker tweeted that he was asked but had to decline due to wrist surgery.

I heard a very strong rumour from my most reliable source that Ali and Moz are actually part of the 2016 squad planning. If they show up well next week then they get a 12 month rolling contract.

Ryan Bailey next ? Senior ? Mathers ?

I'm imagining Martin Taupau and Ben Matulino running full throttle at Fat Garry and it's not pretty.

Depends on your point of view.

Senior I doubt, he's been retired 4 years unlike the three asked who have just finished playing in the last few weeks so will have the required match fitness to play. Mathers I doubt because I think they'd rather have Golding play.

Just got tickets for this and renewed for next season.

Asked about the cowboys game they said the venue isn't decided yet.

Mathers can't play since he's banned.
