By comparison we have lost five games and as a result go into the game seven points behind,and with Morley having two postponed games in hand against Beverley and Guisborough, which they are clear favourites to win.

Regardless, the intention is not to lose at Brinkburn again this season - or anywhere else with a bit of luck.

We go into the game without prop Michael Hogan, who has been one of the stand-out players so far, and bring in former skipper Anth Carr to provide front row cover.

Adam Coates is fit again after coming on to score a great try at Kingston Park last week when he ran a superb line to get our second try of the afternoon. This week he starts in the front row alongside Jack Angus and Andrew Rollins.

We will also have the luxury of having  Aaron Myers available for the second week in a row. He formed a dynamic partnership with Liam Bailey and Sam Miller in a back row which was outstanding on the artificial surface at Kingston Park. It was a game marked  by a lot of whistle, but we were good value for the  22-3 win and should really have gone to get a try bonus point after dominating the second half.

As a result we are unbeaten in 2016. By comparison Morley haven’t played since December 19^th when they hammered Percy Park, decimated by Christmas cry offs,  scoring 50 points in the process.

Our first encounter at Scatcherd Lane saw the home side running out 25-21 winners. We had a number of goes at getting the winning score but a valiant rearguard action in the dying minutes kept our forwards out.

Both sides were missing some key players that day  - including West skipper Dan Boatman and Morley's South African full back Dante van der Merwe - so this encounter promises to be an interesting one.
