Adam Whaites, after a year out through injury, makes a welcome return to the Wharfedale side at full back for the visit of Waterloo in National League Two on Saturday.

Andy Baggett resumes his fly half position, Luke Gray dropping to the bench, where he is joined by the returning Alastair Allen and last season's North under-18 prop Peter Altham, who is set for his debut.

Waterloo, relegated from National League One, are level on points with the Greens but have played one match more.

Their away form is poor, but few matches in the division are decided by more than a handful of points, so there should be little between the sides.

Wharfedale (home to Waterloo): A Whaites; D Hart, C Malherbe, M Bedworth, S Horsfall; A Baggett, J Doherty; P Peel, G Hindle, C Steel, D Lister, A Capstick, O Renton, R Baldwin, D Clements. Replacements: N Dickinson, P Altham, A Allen, L Gray.
