After a few good victories against teams at the wrong end of the table, this weekend it gets back to the top of the League, against second place Rossendale.

After a slow start picking up just a single point in early losses to Wirral and Lymm, but since then it has been a perfect 30 out of 30 with six straight bonus point wins.

Rossendale are reported to have recruited well, including ex Fylde coach Mark Nelson and Kendal's own Reece Thomlinson from Preston Grashoppers. He has missed just one game, after being red carded for foul play at Lymm.

Like us Rossendale have played a number of the lower ranked teams, so this should be a real test for both teams.


Don't Forget kick off is 2.00pm

TEAM : The only change in the pack is last weekend's man of the match Willie Hintz coming in for Chris Downham, with Garry Holmes moving to No.8

Behind the pack Dini Noyo is replaced by Leo Mercer, whilst Chris Park returns at fullback, with Nathan Wooff moving to the bench, joining Richard Harryman and John Dervey

WEATHER : A bright dry sunny afternoon is forecast - but it's going to be cold
