CH preview: Barrow v Halifax (Sun)

test

Barrow Raiders prop Jamie Butler faces a fitness test to determine whether he is able to play against Halifax.

The powerful forward was knocked out during last week’s game against Doncaster.

Raiders coach Darren Holt has set his squad the target of winning three of their remaining five games in order to secure their status in the Kingstone Press Championship.

But Halifax will be determined to bounce back from their midweek loss at Leigh Centurions.

New signing Ben Davies could feature for Halifax after missing out on selection against the Centurions.

Harrison said: “Ben’s a really good, experienced Super League forward who’s only 23 years old.

“If Ben performs well, he’ll be at Halifax next season. We’ve thrown a challenge down to him.”

He added: “We’ve got a tough schedule and it’s about playing your cards right and getting the right balance to get as many points as we can.”
