CARL BARROW is set for his York Lokomotive ARLC debut on Saturday after having his release from York City Knights confirmed.

The forward goes into the Lokos’ squad that hosts Rotherham Giants looking to push on up the RL Conference Yorkshire division table after last week’s win over previously unbeaten Milford.

Ace half-back Ben Jones should also return and could form a new pivotal combination with Chris Varley, who was man of the match on debut last week.

Spokesman Andy Starkey said: “If we can keep this squad together, and add the lads who are to come back in a few weeks, we’ll be well set for the season.”
