Maika Sivo, the Leeds Rhinos winger from Fiji, has been sidelined for the entire 2025 Betfred Super League season due to an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury that requires surgery. The injury occurred during the first half of the Rhinos’ recent 22-4 victory over Wigan Warriors in Ash Handley’s testimonial match.

Leeds Rhinos’ head coach Brad Aurthur expressed deep concern for Sivo, emphasizing the importance of supporting him and his family during this challenging time. He highlighted Sivo’s strong character and determination, expressing confidence in his commitment to recovery.

Sporting Director Ian Blease also acknowledged the setback, noting the excitement surrounding Sivo’s anticipated impact in the upcoming season. The team will now need to reassess their squad and explore available options to fill the void left by Sivo’s absence.

Sivo joined Leeds this year on a three-year contract after previously playing with the NRL side Parramatta Eels. With his injury, fans and teammates alike will have to wait to see the full potential of Sivo in the Super League.

In summary, Sivo’s injury is a significant loss for the Rhinos, but the staff and players are rallying around him to provide support during his recovery journey. This situation serves as a reminder of the resilience athletes must have in facing challenging setbacks.
