Ireland international James McDonnell has revealed his ambition to become an indispensable member of Leeds Rhinos’ pack.
McDonnell is in his second campaign with Rhinos - having joined them from hometown club Wigan Warriors - and moved up the squad numbers from 19 to 16 in pre-season. Only injuries have kept him out of the side since he made his debut in Betfred Super League round three last year, but second-row is arguably Rhinos’ strongest position and McDonnell is competing with Rhyse Martin, James Bentley, Mickael Goudemand and the currently injured Morgan Gannon for a place in the team.
I want to be in the bracket where Rohan can’t really leave me out of the team; he needs to find a way to get me in the team somehow - whether it’s starting in the back-row, coming off the bench in the middle or moving to back-row. I just want that opportunity wherever I can get it.” From a team perspective, McDonnell admitted the Easter derby is a “big game” against opponents who have lost all their five league matches so far. “It always is, travelling to the Jungle,” he said.
