21-man squad vs Newcastle announced

Sean Long has made six changes from last week's 21-man squad.

Coming into contention to face Newcastle this Sunday at Boundary Park are Danny Craven, George Hirst, Josh Johnson, Ben O'Keefe, Jumah Sambou and Joe Wardle.

Craven, who was feared to be out for the season after an injury in the Rochdale victory, has recovered well and could feature this weekend.

Hirst, O'Keefe and Sambou have progressed well with their respective injuries and could also see game time.

Having incurred a number of injuries during last weekend's 32-0 win over Midlands, missing out are Jay Chapelhow, Riley Dean, Brad Gallagher, Jack Johnson, Elijah Taylor and McKenzie Yei

Roughyeds, closing in on the League One title, will be aiming for their ninth consecutive win in the third tier to maintain their three point advantage at the top of the table.

Courtesy of club sponsor Total Demolition, fans who snap up tickets for the next two home games against Newcastle this Sunday and Cornwall, will get the final game of the season - which we hope will be a party atmosphere and trophy presentation - for half price.
