Some decent fixtures in this final round:
Ampthill 5 - 1 Bedford ... Cracking local derby to finish the group games. Ampthill have been playing some decent stuff and scoring points. Blues have been below par due to injuries, but are on the way back. Cracking game this one, but I think that the home side will prevail by the odd point out of 101. YC 0 - 5 Nottingham ... Same old for the season so far. ET 5 - 1 Coventry ... Another good match up, but I think that Ealing at home will just be too good for Cov. They won't worry about the surface though. Newcastle 1 - 4 Jersey ... Just have a feeling about this one, but that probably means a huge home win. If Jersey click, then it could be really close. If Falcons are off form, then Jersey could nick it. If Jersey play like they did last week then it will be a cricket score....to Falcons that is CP 5 - 0 LS ... LS seem to be alive in this competition this season, but I don't think that they will come away from the Mennaye with very much to show for their efforts. Hartpury 4 - 1 Donny ... Th8is could be a really enthralling game. Both sides are showing some form and both look strong. I have gone for the home side as I think that they are better than their bottom of the group position suggests. Edited by Brizzer - 11 Dec 2019 at 14:16 |

Ampthill 5 - 1 Bedford 3 in a row against Blues? Amps will score plenty -playing for a last 8 slot
Yorkshire 0 - 5 Nottingham No shock here, hard for Carnegie to get motivated for this one Ealing 5 - 1 Coventry Ealing underperformed last week and will bite back Pirates 1 - 5 LS Scottish will fancy this against inconsistent Pirates Falcons 5 - Jersey 0 Hard to envisage a Reds win. Prediction: 32 - 12 Hartpury 4 - 1 Donny Pury backs too strong and Donny's cup over |

That'd be 5-2 then. (Unless Bedford are going to score an awful lot of penalties and/or field goals ![]() |

Pool 1 Trailfinders 3-3 Cov Although 5-2 either way more likely Ealing to top the group as winners but Cov to secure a home Q/F draw with 23 points. Ampthill 3-3 Blues Again 5-2 either way most likely but Amps to just miss out on a Q/F place. Pool 2 Falcons 1-5 Jersey Jersey wingers to cut Falcons defence apart and win and score 6 tries although no doubt the behemoths will maul a few short range tries to secure a bonus point. Falcons to top the group as second seed and Jersey to play Cov away as 5th seed. Hartpury 1-4 Donny Very close game but I fancy Donny's experience to secure 8th seed and an away Q/F at Trailfinders. Pool 3 Is a great pool. I predict: Yorkies 0-5 Notts Pirates 5-2 Scottish and three sides finishing on 21 points. Pirates to top the group and secure a home Q/F on points difference followed by Notts & finally Scottish who can visit Falcons. |

Ampthill 5 - 2 Bedford - Having watched Ampthill and Bedford in back to back weeks, I have to say that Ampthill looks the much more professionally drilled side. Can't see the Blues getting much from this.
Leeds 0 - 5 Nottingham - men against boys, again Ealing 5 - 1 Coventry - I'm very curious about what team Ealing will put out for this. They have a season defining tilt with Newcastle the following week, but this decides the pool. Pirates 3 - 3 LS - No clue. Both teams wildly inconsistent this year. Falcons 1 - 5 Jersey - Jersey are due for their annual upset against the relegated club. Hartpury 4 - 1 Donny - Hartpury to pip this at home. |

Ampthill 5 - 2 Bedford - Battle of Bedford . . . Bedford awful this year, why invest when you know there is no threat of relegation.
Yorkshire 10 - 5 Nottingham - One way traffic Ealing 5 - 1 Coventry - Probably but Cov up for this Pirates 5 - 1 LS - CP seek revenge for reversal at RAG Falcons 5 - 0 Jersey - One way traffic Hartpury 5 - 1 Donny - Donny really poor this season, see Bedford comments, the same applies. |

Slightly stronger Cov side than I anticipated. I assumed a couple more of the youngsters were being brought in (after Wednesday's local radio programme), but good to see another Cov Kid Academy product on the bench (McNulty).

COVENTRY RUGBY TEAM TO PLAY EALING TRAILFINDERS
Championship Cup Round 6 Trailfinders Sports Ground Saturday, December 14th, 2019 Kick off 2:00pm 15 Henry Purdy; 14 Andy Bulumakau, 13 Heath Stevens, 12 Rory Jennings, 11 Max Trimble; 10 Tony Fenner, 9 Pete White; 1 James Gibbons, 2 Joe Buckle, 3 Gareth Denman, 4 Adam Peters, 5 Nile Dacres, 6 Ben Nutley, 7 Jack Ram, 8 Ryan Burrows (capt) 16 Sam McNulty, fr2 17 Luc Jeannot, fr 18 Phil Boulton, fr 19 James Voss, 20 Senitiki Nayalo, 21 Tom Kessell, 22 Will Maisey, 23 David Halaifonua Yes, I agree with Kimbo this is a more ‘core’ squad than Rowland Winters was hinting at on Wednesday. Two young front rows on the bench, and a small surprise at 4, but overall a pretty good 23. Surprised not to see Flinn at 9/21, but both the other two are fit and on form. |

Ealing Trailfinders team to play Coventry in Round Six of the Championship Cup at Trailfinders Sports Club on Saturday 14th December: This selection is absolutely barmy. First off, we've swapped out the whole squad again. Secondly, there is no cover for any centres or wingers on the bench - we've got 6 forwards, a scrum half (who should be starting) and a fly half on the bench. Hope no one gets injured. FFS. Otherwise, the starting line up is okay, although Shingler and Hampson haven't had a run out together in ages. I guess our plan is to outmuscle Coventry. 15 Tommy Bell 14 James Cordy Redden 13 Lewis Jones 12 Pat Howard 11 Reon Joseph 10 Steven Shingler 9 Craig Hampson 1 Jordan Els 2 Alun Walker 3 Craig Trenier 4 Dave McKern 5 Harry Casson 6 Andrew Durutalo 7 Jordy Reid 8 Rayn Smid © Replacements: 16 Matt Cornish 17 Will Davis 18 Elliot Millar Mills 19 Ben West 20 Shane Buckley 21 Jordan Burns 22 Craig Willis 23 Kieran Murphy |
