Match Preview

Gate need big performance v Chester

Harrogate's need to bounce back from the disappointment of defeat at Sedgley Park last Saturday is paramount as Chester come to town.

A 35-11 defeat at top of the table Sedgley Park was a mixture of disappointment with performance and frustration in not taking the opportunities when presented which resulted in a comprehensive 5 tries to 1 loss.

Chester visit Rudding Lane this Saturday 24th KO 3pm.

Another tough game is in prospect but with it the chance to right the wrongs of last week.With the Georgians achieving an excellent win away at previously unbeaten Hull Ionians with reports of an excellent team performance coupled with some outstanding individual contributions, the team selection should be very interesting.

However subject to selection Lewis Minikin will be making his 50th appearance for the club and sadly No 8 Willem Enslin will be playing his final game for Harrogate, at least for some time, as his work is taking him away to Canada.

An enthralling afternoon's rugby is in prospect before the following week's break for the World Cup Final.

Please be there and cheer your boys on.
