Table Toppers in town for Sedgie

Table topping Ponteland are the visitors to the Sedgie Wok on Saturday as one of the form teams in the league having lost just once to Ryton. Other than that they have swept all before them including dishing out some brutal defeats by over 70 points along the way. No doubt a very tough encounter.
