EASTER PREVIEW
The Poole 'Wessex Marine' Pirates face a tough opening fixture on Good Friday (6pm) when they welcome Devonshire cousins Plymouth Gladiator...
Anders Rowe will be the sole Poole Pirates representative in Monday's British Final at the NSS Manchester, following the withdrawal of Lewis Kerr.
Lewi damaged his shoulder during the Pirates defeat by Oxford on Wednesday and has been advised to rest for a period of five days which forces him to miss the British Final, having qualified after a three-man run-off at Leicester in the qualifying meeting. Craig Cook who finished third in the run-off will now replace Lewi on Monday.
Richard Lawson had been nominated for a seeded position in the final but declined the invitation, with Kyle Howarth stepping in.
Anders has been drawn at number fifteen which means he will go head to head with Dan Bewley who is seeking a fourth successive National title, former Poole skipper Danny King and Charles Wright. Anders will then appear in heats
