Hoping Bears play for the full 80 minutes this week. A win isn't out of the question but will be a tough ask.

West Wales will have no chance if Skolars take the same squad there as they did to Covenry.

Skolars, Barrow, Bears , Keighley, Workington 

[FearNothing]

can't argue with the above opinions, just hoping Cru put in a better defensive performance this week..

[Johnny Ringo]

Same as above except for maybe the last one. Donny have been getting better each game after a stuttering start and could hit some form soon.

Would agree with that, with the exception of Hunslet (and hoping Skolars perform like last week!)

Keighley v Hunslet was the one I thought could be closest, probably the best match of the round in League 1.

[Rob Nash]

Dons squad seems unchanged from last week. Not going to make a prediction as, apart from the occasional surprise, we don't do well in Cumbria. Fingers crossed for a close game.

I can see Brad Foster in the 17 to strengthen the pack , in the middle.

Foster or York

An interesting article in Free Press re player availability.

[Yorks Tim]

One change for Bears squad as Kadeem Williams replaces the injured Josh Dunne.

I've only seen 20 players named Paul. Joe Fella 21st man you think?

Not really . Holroyd needs a head test so maybe waiting for him

Just hoping Rob that our penalty count does not rack up, the opening exchanges should be interesting and fingers crossed we get our kicking game going.
