Andy Pollard, who can play second row or back row, misses out on Baildon's trip to Hessle
Baildon, who are in a tense battle for the second promotion place in SSE Yorkshire Division Three, have had to make two enforced changes to their squad for Saturday's match at next-to-bottom Hessle.
Utility forward Andy Pollard and centre Elliott Morgan are unavailable, so in come the experienced Phil Wilson and playmaker Nicky Lister.
"Ourselves, Thornensians and Leeds Medics & Dentists are all equal on 61 points, and Goole, who we had a good win against last Saturday, are on 59 points, with Bramley Phoenix on 55," said baildon's director of rugby Andy Whitley.
"However, our points difference (plus 260) means that we are currently second."
Thornensians are at plus 222 and Leeds Medics plus 161, with Goole at plus 86 and Bramley Phoenix plus 90.
