The weather Forecast for Saturday night: Low Two Degrees - High Four Degrees

I like going to Dewsbury. Super ground and great local fans. Fear I'll struggle to make it, but there's time yet.

I expect 3 players to make debuts for the club. And this should be the team:

Kearney
Ainscough
Purtell - DEBUT
Platt
Crookes
Briggs
Gale - DEBUT
Joseph
Diskin
Hargreaves
Sibbit
Bateman
Langley

O'Brien
Sammut - DEBUT
Addy
Burgess
Sykes
Scruton/Kopczak
Donaldson

Dewsbury have confirmed that the ground covers are on site and will be deployed on Thursday with them remaining on till Sunday morning.

Good stuff, hopefully game will be on. Unfortunatly I will not be there. Would have put Pryce instead of Platt but I think Pryce will still be injured for the Dewsbury game.

James Child? Already? The season has not even started and it ruined already.

I'd imagine that the squad being put out will be pretty much what was going to be facing Featherstone, given that game was postponed and we're running out of friendlies for the first team

forecast for the weekend from the met office:
UK Outlook for Saturday 21 Jan 2012 to Monday 30 Jan 2012:

Unsettled, cold and rather windy through Saturday with scattered blustery showers, these wintry over high ground across the northern half of the UK. Turning cloudy and damp Saturday night into Sunday before further unsettled conditions return into the new working week and beyond. Most parts will see a mixture of sunny spells and scattered showers, but more especially across the north and west of the UK. Showers are also likely to be wintry at times over northern hills. Spells of more persistent rain are also likely in the north and west, spreading southeastwards with time. Temperatures will mainly be near average, but rather cold at times in the north. Overnight frosts are likely in quieter interludes. Often windy too, with gales possible at times in the northwest.

so it could be just about anything than the current persistent cold weather that would necessitate covers. So I think this one could be on, but cold wet windy weather that will create a load of handling mistakes. Just right for Gale no pun intended to get his kicking game going.

I would seek solace in the West Riding Refreshment Rooms on Dewsbury station, one of the best pubs on the planet. It's also the best place if the weather looks threatening.

How do you get to the station? Does your driver drop you there?

Don't be stupid.

He would never be seen associating with the proles in such a place.

His private train pulls in there, and the butler is despatched to collect the refreshments.

Yeah, I'm amazed. Dews must be [ireally[/i determined to win this one.....

In my experience I've found it to be excellent for sheltering from the sun too, bloody weather, just can't trust it...

Being in there normally results in the phrase “it doesn’t matter I’ll get the next one” being used at least 3 times on my way back to Manchester.

Very good pub, improved by being able to book the TV in advance for Bulls games when you can’t get to the game.

Hopefully I'll at the game and in the Huntsman before hand. Lovely boozer very near ground.

If enough of us want to form a crew and take on the Dewsbury lot we should have a good scrap. Strcitly no shooters just blades.

I hope this is just a joke, if so it's in bad taste. We don't need this kind of talk even in jest in Rugby League as a moderator you should know better.

My local is the Huntsman.

Shaw Cross rugby club will be open before the game too, which is walking distance to the ground. Also anyone who wants to get over super early, Shaw Cross under 18's are playing West Hull in the Yorkshire Cup Semi-Final. 11.30 kick off. That should be a cracking game!

I was also both shocked AND appalled and will be complaining on Twitter immediately. #stateofyouthtoday

I agree entirely, there's nowt wrong with shooters.

Bulls squad to face Dewsbury: Kearney, Ainscough, Purtell, Platt, Crookes, Jeffries, Gale, Diskin, Hargreaves, Joseph, Sibbit, Bateman, Addy, Langley, Briggs, O’Brien, Burgess, Walker, McAvoy, Kopczak, Sykes, Donaldson, Scruton, Murphy.

A bit stronger than the usual squad sent to Dewsbury. Due to the Fev game being postponed I guess.

Dewsbury will start with:

James Craven; Andy Smith; Ryan Esders; Ayden Faal; Austin Buchanan; Scott Spaven; Patch Walker; Steve Crossley; Luke Blake; Nick Fozzard; Rob Spicer; Dwayne Barker; Ed Barber.

I'll take that as a maybe.

I don't expect an easy game, especially if it's heavy going. We've never looked that great in these games in recent years.
