Wibsey expecting a close encounter

Having put six tries past basement side Adwick le Street last Saturday in a 38-17 away triumph, Wibsey want to make it back-to-back wins on Saturday when they face Garforth at home in SSE Yorkshire Division Five.

Wibsey's head coach Dave Grayson said: "The trouble with the previous match against Doncaster Amateurs was that we only had 14 men, and that was down to 13 by half-time.

"This time we took 16 men and I knew that we had the edge over them in the backs, which we proved when we spun the ball around rather than keeping it in the forwards, where we also did well."

As for Garforth, who are one place but eight points ahead of Wibsey, Grayson said: "They have some rugby league lads in their side and they can be quite physical, which can affect us as we are a young side without an enforcer.

"I think it will be a close match."
