Malton & Norton’s Paul Dobson is stretchered off during the win over Northern
Paul Dobson will miss Malton & Norton RUFC’s trip to Old Brodleians in North One East tomorrow.
The prop was stretchered off in last week’s 31-5 victory against Northern after suffering a back spasm and he has not recovered in time. Nick Salisbury, who came on for Dobson, will continue to deputise.
Of Brods, club spokesman Bill Laidler said: “They are a very young side but we beat them fairly comfortably at home earlier in the season. They seem to have picked up now.”
York make only two changes from the XV that ruthlessly polished off Dinnington as they travel to Knottingley in Yorkshire One.
Hugh Nicholson comes in for Rich Downey, with Gareth Singleton replacing Billy Cakaunitabua to make up a new wing line-up. Skipper Jim Rossington is on the bench, where he is joined by Tom Boyle.
Selby visit Bradford Salem in Yorkshire Two, York RI entertain Bramley Phoenix in Yorkshire Three, while Nestlé Rowntree host Rotherham Clifton in Yorkshire Five.
