We entertain the league leaders tomorrow as Novocastrians RFC head south to the Grangefield Ground.
There are changes across the squad.
Tom Skirving is nursing a shoulder injury, so Lewis Gray shifts across to hooker. Sean Jones returns from injury, while Jamie Douthwaite makes his first start after an impressive impact from the bench last week.
In the engine room, injuries and unavailability mean a reshuffle in the row. Veteran Jonny Cheetham returns alongside the ever-reliable Robin Webster.
The back row sees Robbie Carr Riley back from injury, with Paul Evans at 8 and big Dev Douthwaite at 6 β meaning weβve got two brothers in the pack π
Just the one change in the backs as Jakob Taylor makes a welcome return for the unavailable Elliot Shaw.
On the bench, Harvey Marshall is in line to make his First XV debut after impressing with the Saracens over the past couple of seasons.
A big test. But what else would you rather be doing on a Saturday afternoon?
With the kitchen facilities out of action yesterday, we were rescued by our fantastic sponsor Oxbridge Fish Bar and Matthew Harkin
Seems not only do they do the best fish in Teesside, they do the best pie and peas too
Definitely worth a visit π΄βͺοΈ

Weβre still not entirely sure how old Jonny is β somewhere between 30 and 60 at a guess!
After a long career anchoring the First XV in the second row, heβs been enjoying himself with the Saracens lately.
But with four front-line second rows handing in sick notes this week, he was pressed back into action todayβ¦
And he was absolutely brilliant. π΄βͺοΈ
Some things never change.
