Wath Brow Hornets hungry for points

Wath Brow Hornets topped a half century of points last week at Hull Dockers and will be hungry for more tomorrow.

They host a fading Thatto Heath Crusaders side who have slipped to sixth in the National Conference Premier Division.

The Brow are in a three-way battle to catch leaders Hunslet Amateurs who have forged a three-point advantage at the top.

But the Amateurs have a difficult assignment tomorrow at third-placed West Hull where a home win could chance the complexion of the top four.

West Hull were 22-8 winners in west Cumbria last week at Kells, a defeat which keeps Peter Smith and his men looking over the shoulders at the relegation berths.

Kells have a four-point gap between themselves and Leigh Miners Rangers and will probably need at least a couple of more wins in the last seven games to make themselves safe.

Tomorrow they travel to Castleford to take on Lock Lane who are only a point better off and a place above them.

Egremont Rangers have five games left in Division One and currently occupy the second promotion place.

They can cement their position tomorrow at home to Ince Rose Bridge who currently occupy the third relegation place.

Barrow Island are in danger of slipping out of play-off contention in Division Two and face a trick trip to Shaw Cross Sharks.

Their hosts are third in the table, although they struggled last week and only beat the bottom side East Leeds 26-24.

In Division Three Millom will be the focus of attention when they entertain top four rivals Leigh East.

The plan is to include former NRL star Fuifui Moimoi in their line-up following his release by Rochdale Hornets. He will be up in Cumbria for a family Christening and is keen to play alongside his nephews for the Woollybacks.

His inclusion should certainly size up the crowd figure for what is a key game in the Third Division programme.

Millom are fourth, four points and a place behind Leigh East who are one of three teams level on points at the top.

One of those is Ellenborough who travel to Beverley tomorrow on the back of a remarkable fight-back last week which earned them a 46-22 win at Eastmoor Dragons.

Just before half-time they were looking at a 20-0 deficit.

At the bottom Seaton Rangers will be looking to record their third win of the season at home to Bentley.

Hensingham, trying to avoid having to seek re-election again are on the road to the team immediately above them, two points better off, in Drighlington.
