Butterworth: It will be a tough game
Dewsbury Rams hooker Reiss Butterworth believes the team can bounce back strong against Swinton on Monday. The team have lost three games on the spin now but the former Huddersfield Giants man isn’t worried. On last weekend’s disappointing loss to Halifax, Butterworth said: “We are our own worst enemies at times, we just make too many unforced errors which just gifted fax field possession for the majority of the game. When you do that against any good team they will punish you and that’s exactly what Halifax did. “Obviously everyone was down and sulking in the sheds because it’s never […]

Martin: We will be going out all guns blazing
Dewsbury Rams fullback Joe Martin says the team will be going out all guns blazing to get a win this weekend against Swinton. Martin who played last weekend was bitterly disappointed with the 36-0 home defeat to Halifax.

Return of Spectators to the Tetley’s Stadium
We have today received further guidance from the RFL regarding the welcome return of spectators to our stadium. Further discussions will be held with Kirklees Council in light of this advice.

The club should be able to issue an updated statement on Saturday regarding how we can welcome you to the game. What we do know already is that our ground capacity is likely to be capped at less than 700 and we will have […]

Kirby joins Rams on loan
Dewsbury Rams can confirm that 22 year old Jon-Luke Kirby has joined us on a short term loan. Kirby currently plays for the Huddersfield Giants and can play in the prop/second row position.

He made his Super League debut for the Giants in the all important win away at Hull FC in 2019.

David Hyomes local RL Report
Last week I wrote about the fantastic news that training & playing had resumed at all age groups within our local community clubs. Until that magical date of 17th May when people are allowed to be spectators at live sport our clubs cannot publicise their games but I can let you know how their progress is unfolding. Our Dewsbury based National Conference League clubs all played pre season friendlies last Saturday with one of the games being a keenly fought local derby. Thornhill Trojans emerged victorious over Dewsbury Moor Maroons by 36-14. The Overthorpe Park men built on a narrow […]
