Wetherby Crusaders travel to York this weekend to face Nestle Rowtrees who they lost to narrowly at Grange Park earlier in the season.

Wetherby Crusaders are coming off a good win last week against Castleford Development and have strengthened the side to face Nestle Rowntrees with Club Captain Danny Warden finding himself at second row as he looks to regain match fitness after ballooning out of shape in the Caribbean over the last couple of weeks.

Nestle Rowntrees will be looking to bounce back after losing heavily to league leaders Moortown at the weekend, but will be full of confidence after scoring a a bonus point for four tries against the Leeds outfit.

This will be the fourth time the Crusaders have played Nestle Rowntrees, since the York based team dropped out the League system. The Red's will be looking for a win having lost the last two games against Nestle.

Kick off is at 2:15pm.

Wetherby Crusaders from:

C Atkinson, M Bartle, M Cornelisson, A Dus, J Fox, P Franks, J Halkias, J Hazel, M Jones, S Lally, M Little, P Minns, G Plant, J Radcliffe, D Snook, D Warden, R Watts.
