The 1st XV will be looking to show a marked improvement against a team that did a job on MV back in Sept - since then we have adapted our play and introduced new players to the mis - let's see how we fare at home on Saturday - kick off 2.15pm.
Please come and get behind the players and show your support for the Club both on and off the pitch.
The team will open proceedings with 2nd XV captain Connor Ryan taking his place at prop alongside hooker Craig Collier and with Jack Gobbett working on the other side of the scrum.
Captain Andrew Clegg will be joined in the second row of the scrum by Paul Davenport.
The back row see's Micah Dyos starting in the No 8 shirt accompanied by Lewis Kingdon and Chris Ward playing as wing forwards.
The half back pairing has Callum Yates scrum half and Jordan Parker at stand off.
Lining up together in the centres Ben Wainwright and Matt Coxon will be in the heart of defence and attack.
Adding pace out wide will be Jamie Parker and Joe Owen who will also need to be sharp in defence .
Luke O'Shea at full back will have a good view of the field to both defend and launch attacks from deep.
On the bench looking for their opportunities will be Byron Marx, Joe Walls and Pat Eccles
Good luck to all the players and Thank You for your availability
