SAM WHITEHEAD gets his first 1st XV start in a year and the Gardner brothers get rare starts as the Raiders host Westcliff at Footes Lane on Saturday afternoon (2pm)
Coach Jordan Reynolds has chosen to make several changes from the side that sneaked over the lie at Bracknell last week.
Both the Thomases - Matt and Owen - get the week off and Luke Sayer returns at full back.
Glen Walters switches back to fly half in Owen Thomas's absence and the other significant news is that Malcolm Barnes starts on the replacement bench and naturally is a major card to be kept up the coach's tactical sleeve.
Earlier, on the old club pitch, fans and fellow players will get the opportunity to see new Australian recruit Eamonn Chapman line up for the Raiders 2nds against Westcliff 2s.
The former Scarborough player has just stepped on island soil and Reynolds has high hopes for him in the coming months.
The 2nd match kicks off at 12.30.
