What is Inside the Camp with Leeds Rhinos?

According to the club, each week the RAM Films team takes viewers Inside the Camp for an in-depth look at the personalities that make up the Leeds Rhinos organisation.

The extended feature includes players mic'd up in training and games, plus their time away from the club. It follows the highly successful Spirit of the Rhinos documentaries from the last two years.

Access is staggered: content is available first and exclusive to Leeds Rhinos TV Plus each Saturday, then to Rhinos TV members 24 hours later, and available for all from each Monday.

Why does the Leeds Rhinos Players Association matter?

In the latest episode, Barrie McDermott and Jamie Jones-Buchanan explain the importance of the Leeds Rhinos Players Association. The club frames the group as a way of keeping teammates together for support long after they hang up their playing boots.

That angle answers the top fan question quickly: this is not a match preview package. It is a behind-the-scenes look at how former and current connections endure beyond the pitch, presented through the club's own documentary-style series.

Full details sit on the official club site in the Inside the Camp with Leeds Rhinos Players Association release.

How can fans watch Rhinos TV Plus content?

Leeds Rhinos say the new YouTube membership Rhinos TV Plus costs £5.99 a month. Benefits listed include exclusive content such as full game replays from the men's Betfred Super League, priority access to features like Behind the Game, and live streaming of selected Academy and Reserves games at AMT Headingley.

An entry-level Rhinos TV membership is available for £3.99, with early access to features but without live streams and full game replays. Free uploads such as match highlights, pre- and post-match press conferences, player interviews and popular podcasts stay free.

Rhinos TV Plus members also get exclusive first access to series two of Spirit of the Rhinos, the RAM Films behind-the-scenes documentary following the Rhinos through the 2025 campaign. The club notes sign-ups should be completed via desktop or browser rather than the YouTube app to avoid extra provider charges.

Where do Leeds Rhinos stand on the pitch right now?

Separate reporting puts the on-field storyline in sharp relief. BBC Sport reported on 17 July 2026 that captain Ash Handley is out for three weeks after an appendix operation and will miss the Super League leaders' trip to Castleford Tigers, with Bradford Bulls and Toulouse also likely to come without him.

Hooker Jarrod O'Connor is also out of the Castleford game under concussion return-to-play protocol. Prop Keenan Palasia is sidelined for six weeks with a foot injury, and winger Ryan Hall remains out with a foot problem from the Magic Weekend win over Bradford. Prop Cooper Jenkins has been cleared after an eye injury.

Racing Post previewed Castleford versus Leeds Rhinos for Sunday 19 July 2026, 3pm at OneBore Stadium on Sky Sports+, noting Leeds' seven-game Super League winning run and a recent 28-6 away win over Catalans Dragons.
