Tigers face tough meetings
MILDENHALL Fen Tigers face two tough matches this weekend starting away at Weymouth tomorrow before a home meeting against high-flying Bournemouth on Sunday (4pm).
Both these teams are power-packed and the Fen Tigers know they will have to be at the top of their game to take the points of these two south coast sides.
Skipper David Mason returns to his former stamping ground tomorrow and team manager John Adams believes that could be prove crucial. He said: "David looked much better in a bad team performance the other week. Luke Priest likes it at Weymouth and so does Barrie Evans, so we will be giving it everything down there to try and regain a bit of pride and push the Wildcats, who are very strong at home.”
Sunday sees the return of former Fen Tiger Mark Baseby as the Bournemouth Buccaneers are the visitors to West Row and the home riders know they must be on top form to inflict a rare defeat on the men from Dorset.
Adams said: “This is another extremely tough meeting and they certainly are not getting any easier but we will go in to it determined to win and certainly have learned our lesson from the other week when I feel we were a bit complacent.”
The Fen Tigers are likely to remain unchanged for both fixtures.
Mildenhall team (probable): 1 Barrie Evans, 2 Oliver Rayson, 3 David Mason captain, 4 Dean Felton, 5 Luke Priest, 6 Darren Smith, 7 Joe Jacobs.
