Andy Gorski is in line to make his first appearance for Swinton at York on Thursday (8pm).

Gorski was 18th man for Sunday’s 24-18 defeat to Hunslet but is likely to make the full squad as the Lions face two games in four days.

Coach Steve McCormack is likely to use his entire squad for the game at York and Sunday’s trip to Barrow in the Northern Rail Cup.

He said: "I'm expecting everyone who played against Hunslet to come through OK.

"All the players that missed out are fit to play so we will assess the situation and make changes accordingly.

"Players like Andy Gorski, Richie Hawkyard, Rob Foxen, Alex Hurst and one or two others will come into contention.

"Three games in a week and two between Thursday and Sunday is a big ask for part-time rugby league players.

"So we will have a look at the full squad and take it from there."

Gorski has been recovering from treatment on his Achilles tendons but has been back in full training for three weeks.

The Lions picked up a bonus point for their in their defeat to Hunslet which was in the balance until the last minute of the game.

But victory in both games coming up is vital if the Lions are to proceed in the competition.

McCormack added: "We have picked a bonus point up against Hunslet, which isn't ideal because you always want to win, but we are looking forward to Thursday now.

"It's a tough ask going to York on a Thursday night but we are looking forward to it and it can't come soon enough for us."
