West Bowling supporters will be wondering just what to expect when their Jekyll and Hyde team run out against Thatto Heath Crusaders at Bankfoot Oval.

Bowling looked to have turned the corner in their attempt to escape relegation from National Conference Division One after a splendid victory over leaders Saddleworth, which was hot on the heels of a magnificent display against Premier giants Wigan St Patrick in the BARLA National Cup.

However, it was back to earth with a bump with a woeful display last week against relegation rivals Rochdale Mayfield in what was a ‘four-pointer’.

The St Helens visitors are a class act, fancied by many to take the title, and gave Wests the runaround 58-16 on home soil.

Bowling loose forward Jonny Summers is doubtful with an eye injury.

Bradford Dudley Hill travel to Myton Warriors seeking a double that will further cement their impressive unbeaten six-match run.

Hill are reaping the benefits from fielding a settled side and look odds-on favourites to at least match the 26-16 scoreline they ran in at Parry Lane earlier this season to keep second spot in the table.
