A year ago today - on March 21, 2022 - Richard Agar stepped down as Leeds Rhinos coach.

It has been a tumultuous 12 months since then. Agar’s final game was a 26-12 defeat at Salford Red Devils, three days before he resigned.

Of the 17 Leeds players on duty that day, only six - Blake Austin, Aidan Sezer, Zane Tetevano, James Bentley, Rhyse Martin and Cameron Smith - featured when Rhinos were beaten 14-8 at Castleford Tigers last Thursday.

Of the remaining 11, seven have left the club, two are injured and a couple more were not selected.
