Match Preview and Squad announcement


Injury boost for Knights

Paul King, James Ford, Jack Lee and Tom Bush could all return for York City Knights' final game of the Co-operative Championship season against Hunslet.

Knights coach Chris Thorman said: "We all want to finish the year on a high.

"Hunslet have improved recently, and they're competing with teams a lot more regularly.

"It's going to be tough, because neither of us wants to finish bottom of the competition, but our guys are really determined to finish well."

Tommy Haughey (hip) is ruled out for the Hawks, while Danny Grimshaw and Steve Dooler are also expected to miss out.

Anthony Henderson will be missing after breaking a bone in his hand while at work.

Hawks coach Barry Eaton was encouraged by his side's last performance against Dewsbury.

He said: "We created enough opportunities to win two games. We're certainly not too despondent, although we need to be more clinical."

On York, he added: "They've had a similar problem to us in the halves, although they've had Chris Thorman for most of the year.

"They've had a tough year, but they're still massively higher in terms of their budget than we are.

"I'm expecting a very tough game, and both teams will be wanting to avoid the wooden spoon."
