Harrison looks for top three spot

Batley Bulldogs coach Karl Harrison could see his side climb back into the Co-operative Championship‘s top three.

With Widnes failing to win at Halifax, victory over struggling Toulouse will see Batley move up one place in the league table.

Adam Robinson (knee) is Batley’s main concern, but the Bulldogs will not be short of confidence after last week’s 18-16 win over Halifax.

Tim Wynn is ruled out for Toulouse after tearing his quad in a recent game against Halifax. The Australian is the latest player to be cursed by Olympique’s extraordinary injury luck in 2011.

However, full-back Rory Bromley made his return to action in last week’s 16-8 victory over Dewsbury, and provided he suffered no further reaction this week he will be certain to bolster Gilles Dumas’s options for the trip to Yorkshire.
