Match Preview

Visitors Pocklington currently sit at the foot of the table, and have picked up just a single point in their last eight games (in a narrow loss against second bottom Morley). They have just the one win (against Ilkley) this season, but in the away game they showed they can play well, and as we found against both Morley and Birkenhead Park, our team can struggle against teams towards the bottom.

TEAM : A number of changes this weekend. Chris Park comes in at fullback, with Nathan Wooff moving to the bench. Kris Bratton starts in the centre, with Brett Ashley coming in on the left wing and Dini Noyo moving to the right.

Up front Robbie Collinson starts at hooker, with Jacob Sutton moving to the back row in place of Matty Houghton. Ross McKay comes into the second row for Liam Hayton. Ben Dixon and Matt Charters swap places with Charters moving to No.8

Garry Holmes starts on the bench again, joined making a welcome return from a long period on the injury list by Jack Lashley, for a first appearance since October 2016, one of just two last season.

WEATHER : The forecast looks OK, dry with little chance of a frozen pitch, so another attempt to get that elusive first win on the main pitch.
