Wetherby travel to Ripon this weekend with the Red's looking to pick up their first win of the season.

Wetherby have lost their opening three games of the season despite having only conceded the second least amount of points in the league. The Red's will know they will need a strong defence this weekend as they come up against a Ripon side looking to bounce back after a disappointing defeat against Old Crossleyans last weekend.

Wetherby will be without prop Scotty Wallis however Sean Lally returns to loosehead after recovering from a hamstring injury. Influential back Andrew Trotman also returns to the starting lineout. Alex Dus is expected to start at Fly Half after a heavy feed of Buffalo Wild Wings and Hooters in the States.

George Gilbert and James Gibson return to the starting line up to add some mobility around the park.

Kick off is at 3:00pm.

Wetherby:

S Lally, S Hoather, B Mason, D Warden (C), T Bottomley, H Freeman, G Gilbert, J Gibson, J Day, A Dus, J Kaye, R Adair, M Oates, C Atkinson, A Trotman, R Thomson, P Minns, G Plant.
