Pirates 5 - 0 London Scottish - tough place to visit

Ealing 5 - 0 Bedford Could be fast and furious

Hartpury 4 - 1 Jersey. After last week's "grief" for my comment I am sure this will be a highly entertaining Fiji Vs Barbarians type match with the crowd all sighing with disappointment at the final whistle

Nottingham 2 - 4 Coventry Missed kicks the downfall.....

Richmond 1 - 4 Doncaster Tight attritional affair

Pirates 5-0 Scottish As its streamed I hope to watch this one at home Pirates go nap

Ealing 5-1 Blues Loads of tries for both teams

Pury 1-4 Jersey I expect more squad rotation from Jersey ahead of the big test next week but still hope for a narrow away win.

Nottingham 5-2 Cov A try fest should be great to watch.

Mond 3-3 Donny Although 5-2 either way probably more likely

Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD.

Last week’s results were great for Ampthill who retained sixth spot without playing. And I think the same can happen again this week. Let’s see.

Cornish Pirates 5-0 London Scottish. I honestly cannot see any other outcome.
Ealing 5-0 Bedford. Ealing must be looking to consolidate their position at the top whilst Bedford have lost all their flair. Very strange.
Hartpury 1-4 Jersey. Hartpury are the surprise team of this year’s campaign, but Jersey might just scrape this one.
Nottingham 4-1 Coventry. Nottingham are due a win and Coventry aren’t the best travellers.
Richmond 1-4 Doncaster. I just think Doncaster are hell-bent on pushing Ealing all the way, so they should win here.

And if my predictions are correct then Ampthill will stay sixth.

Always trying to stay bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

Predictions:

Cornish Pirates 5 v 0 London Scottish - Same old story for the away team at the Mennaye - no joy to be had.

Ealing 5 v 0 Bedford - Just the fixture you want when you are in poor form, would be an almighty upset if Blues got anything from this one.

Hartpury 1 v 4 Jersey - Jersey seem to have got over their little wobble and I think they will get a good win on the road against a good Hartpury team.

Nottingham 4 v 1 Coventry - I think Nottingham will just about win this one, Coventry‘s away form has been poor this year. Have they actually won away yet?. -

Richmond 1 v 5 Doncaster - A really tough one for the Donny boys but if we want to retain a slim chance of catching Ealing we have to get the full monty of points here. Mond won’t give up and will push us all the way.

Edit: re Notts v Cov Coventry still have not won away this season!.

Pirates 5 - 0 London Scottish I do not think LS will get much change out of this game

Ealing 5 - 0 Bedford Bedford lacking consistency and Ealing are quality

Hartpury 4 - 1 Jersey Tough one to call going with Home win

Nottingham 2 - 2 Coventry Calling a draw so unlikely to pan out that way

Richmond 0 - 5 Doncaster This is going to be a tough one, I am travelling down for this game, to enjoy the southern balmy weather, and a very tight match that the Knights will eventually break free of the grips of Richmond, let their fitness shine through and capitalise in the last quarter.

Pirates     5 - 0 London Scottish … Sorry LS, but can't see anything else.
Ealing      5 - 1 Bedford … Ironically, this could just be the game that Bedford need. They will be expected to lose, so no pressure and could thrive in that environment. High scoring this one.
Hartpury    1 - 4 Jersey … Really tough game to predict. You just don't know what you are going to get with Hartpury. Reds playing better now and the penalty count is starting to fall. If they can stay on the right side of the whistle again, I fancy them to win.
Nottingham 1 - 5 Coventry … Cov to break their away duck for the season. 2 sides who have known and will do again, better fortunes.
Richmond    1 - 5 Doncaster … Game of the week this. I can see sparks flying up front. Donny to show why they are title challengers.

Good luck all.

Tackle Low!!!!!

For the ordinary purposes of conversation, a superficial knowledge of many things goes further than an intimacy with one or two.

Cornish Pirates 5 - 0 London Scottish - no other result happening here.
Ealing 5 - 0 Bedford - Ealing at home too tough for an out of form Bedford.
Hartpury 4 - 1 Jersey - Hartpury played very tough last week in the second half, and I suspect that that will carry over.
Nottingham 4 - 1 Coventry - I've seen coventry twice, and am very unconvinced, especially with all of the injury problems that I hear about on this board.
Richmond 3 - 3 Doncaster - In respect of CC's usual prediction, why not?

starting XV for Ealing - I like this team sheet. Ealing has rotated heavily, but in a way that gets game time for veterans, and not just 'getting the kids in'. Also, Ben Ward has kept Rayn Smid on the field. He is central to Ealing's shape and structure. Excited to see a few new recruits in the 23 as well, and hope they get some game time. This should be more than enough to see off Blues.

1. Dylan Smith

2. Jan-Henning Campher

3. George Davis

4. Simon Linsell

5. Harry Casson

6. Len Massyn

7. Simon Uzokwe

8. Rayn Smid (C)

9. Craig Hampson

10. Steven Shingler

11. Angus Kernohan

12. Matt Gordon

13. Max Bodilly

14. Cian Kelleher

15. Luke Daniels

Replacements

16. Shaun Malton

17. James Gibbons

18. Jimmy Roots

19. Bobby De Wee

20. James Cannon

21. Jordan Burns

22. Craig Willis

23. Izaiha Moore-Aiono

Pirates 5 - 0 London Scottish - Any other result will be a shock

Ealing 5 - 0 Bedford - Likewise

Hartpury 4 - 1 Jersey - Very close call here . . just on home advantage

Nottingham 4 - 1 Coventry . . just with home advantage

Richmond 0 - 5 Doncaster - a spirited game from Richmond but Donny just too organised.

Run with it
