A young but dynamic front row features university students Lewis Green & Luke Love along with hooker Luke Guffick. While there is serious power behind them as Ed Nixon – outstanding against Minety last time out – is joined by ex 1st team captain Matt Howard. Completing the pack, Jack Solomon is joined in the back row by Tom Horrell and versatile No. 8 Kyle Oakley.

In the half-backs, Rhys Thomas again starts at No. 9 where he is joined by Jac Stone outside him, while captain James Marwick is partnered in midfield by the strong-running Charlie Green. James Davies and Archie Robertson provide serious pace on the wings, while Jordan Chidlow completes the side at full back.

The replacement front row options features versatile Joe Hurley, while the experienced Alex Baker is joined by form utility back Sam Stone.
