Pocklington should keep in touch with Yorkshire Two leaders Sheffield Tigers and Bradford Salem by putting Knottingley to the sword in East Yorkshire.

The club's 21-17 victory at Settle was much needed following a slip-up against West Park Bramhope and, with just five wins in 15, Knottingley shouldn't prove any trouble for Pocklington at home.

Big lock Mark Biggin returns to the squad after three weeks out with a cracked metacarpal in his right hand.

In the backs, Karl Hart is unavailable. Former York Acorn three-quarter Tim Wilcock steps in.

The previous meeting between the sides, at Knottingley in October, ended in a 33-16 victory for Pocklington.
