Westoe Preview

South Shields Westoe travel to rivals Stockton this Saturday, looking to get back to winning form after last week’s slip against West Hartlepool.

Stockton currently sit in sixth place on equal points to Westoe and recent years have seen some close encounters with Westoe taking the honours on three of the last four meetings.

Westoe make a raft of changes this week due to injuries and unavailability.

In the pack, Brian Pape comes in at Hooker for Louis Kellett, Adam Sneller joins the second row for Anthony Rumis and Clayton Fox moves from the bench to start at open-side for Sam Gaff.

The backs have Connor Pascoe in at nine for Michael Booth, Jamie Preston moves to centre for Sam Hughes, Louis Hagan starts on the wing and Ross Macauley takes the full-back spot for Jake Arnold.

The bench sees a return for Haydn Richards and Sean Ramsay, with the final spot still to be decided.

Kick-off is 3.00pm at Stockton –
