Match Preview

Wetherby will be hoping to continue there fine start to life in Yorkshire Three as they travel to Northallerton in a repeat of last seasons Yorkshire Silver Trophy Final.

Northallerton are four without a win and will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing start to the season which has saw them lose at home against Goole in the opening round of fixtures and also at Harrogate Pythons last weekend. There four game losing streak also includes two cup finals, the first against Battersea Ironsiders in the National Junior Vase and also a close 18-13 reversal against the Reds in the Yorkshire Silver Trophy Final.

The Reds welcome back a string of players to help strengthen the team. Last seasons top points scorer Conor Sheridan returns from illness and Wetherby welcome back Rob Adair and George Gilbert from unavailability. Steve Hoather will make his first appearance of the season as the hooker looks to sort out Wetherby's misfiring line out.
