Regional 1 South East

Letchworth vs Colchester: (Letchworth 0 - 5 Colchester)

Letchworth are very much looking like the Chelsea of Regional 1 SE from early showing, spending a lot of money for little returns. Their only win coming to what looks like a struggling Westcliff outfit. Colchester continuing their form from last year and look strong again. I can only see this going one way. 

Old Northamptonians vs Harpenden (Old Northamptonians 1-4)

Tough one to call this, just going with Harpenden as they have probably had the slightly better results, however whispers of them losing some of there better players, could this explain the drumming from Sudbury? Time will tell. Old Northamptonians are very much an unknown quantity. Would be interested to hear from anyone who has seen them play. This secrecy around them could mean that they surprise a few teams.

Shelford vs Tring (Shelford 1-4 Tring)

Tring had a wobble first week vs Oundle, but have recovered well beating Rochford away and then local rivals Hertford at home convincingly (Apparently early red for Tring aswell?). However looking at squad lists they may have lost some players as they have a traditional 2XV back 3 (could also be injuries?). Shelford are always a solid team whenever I watch them and they took Colchester close week 2, so this promises to be probably pick of the games. I am going Tring, as they are always a tough outfit with an exceptional kicker that rarely misses and I predict this to be close.

Rochford vs Hertford (Rochford 5-0 Hertford)

Rochford me in this match up, I watched Hertford week 1 vs Colchester and they are a shell of the side they used to be, seems like they have potentially run out of money? Lots of youngsters so could grow as the season goes on but need to get a lot more battle hardened. However if the rumours of 14 men for Tring last week are true, that loss to Tring would have hurt even more than normal so a reaction could be on the cards. Rochford have had some good results and them being at home means I can't look anywhere over than a BP win.

Sudbury vs Oundle (Sudbury 4 - 1 Oundle)

Another tough call, but Sudbury to edge it for me, seem to have taken a beating from Colchester last week, so will be looking to bounce back, however they had a very good result against Harpenden early on. Could they be the France of old of Regional 1 SE? Oundle's results have dropped off after a great result week 1, I have heard their 12 is a class operator and can be the difference. Has he been playing? However head is saying Sudbury.

Westcliff vs Bedford Athletic (Westcliff 0-5 Bedford Athletic)
