The Northern United Dirawongs will play a catch up game against the Cudgen Hornets on Saturday.

The match will be played at Crozier Field and is a Round 3 match that was postponed earlier in the year due to the ongoing wet.

Coach Chris Binge has been able to name a strong side to take on the Hornets who will be out turn around a narrow 18-14 loss to Marist Brothers last weekend.

The Dirawongs are coming of an impressive 30-12 victory over the Ballina Seagulls last Saturday and currently sit in 4th position on the NRRRL Ladder.

The addition of Tyrone Roberts in the halves and James Roberts in the outside backs has strengthened a side that went deep into the finals last season.

Both players have demonstrated their NRL skill and experience for United in the opening rounds of the season.

Fullback Hezekiah McKenzie continues his good form with United and the side will look to add more competition points to a solid start to the season.

The Dirawongs forward pack, led by Jirra Breckenridge and Djaan Jarrett have paved the way for the slick backline this season.

Jamahl Roberts and dummy half has also been effective moving the squad around the park.

Under 18's will start at 12:00pm, Reserve Grade at 1:15pm and First Grade at 2:45pm.
