KEIGHLEY Cougars have named their 21-man squad for the huge clash against Batley Bulldogs tomorrow.
Matt Foster's Cougars have fallen into the Betfred Championship drop zone, after losing 10 of their last 11 league games, and only have six matches left to save themselves.
They currently sit a point from safety, but will have to do without star full-back Lewis Young against Batley, as he is to serve a one-game suspension.
Captain Ellis Robson will be looking to the experience of Mark Ioane and Junior Sa'u on the field at Cougar Park, while the game is a chance for some of the stars of last season, like Mo Agoro and Charlie Graham, to shine.

Keighley will be looking to bounce back from their agonising 18-10 defeat to Swinton in a relegation four-pointer last time out, with tries from Young and Robson not enough to secure victory.
Batley meanwhile are riding high in the play-offs, but had their progress checked a fortnight ago with a heavy 42-6 home loss at the hands of the Bradford Bulls.
