Sounds like it was much better from Ampthill this week, I am starting to think we can survive at this level even without Leeds

Very good from Ampthill who capitalised on lashings of west London generosity. If the Ampthill lineout had been anything like functioning they would have won. As it was, Ealing scored 10 points in the last 8 minutes whilst down to 14 players to scrape an ill-deserved victory.
Speak softly, but carry a big stick.

Is that right? The Beeb have you down as having 16 points (not that I'd trust that particular corporation as far as I could throw it!).
We both have very tough away fixtures next week, so could be interesting. Odds slightly favouring Cov for the home QF at the mo though, I think.

Just got back from the away trip. Ampthill played very well. They took all of their chances, were extremely disciplined, but showed great aggression at the breakdown to force a number of turnovers. The lineout was, however, a major weakness for Ampthill and kept Ealing in the game.

Ealing played a decent game as well, but suffered from a number of mental errors, especially with silly knock ons, including one past the try line by Craig Willis that set up an Ampthill try. Ealing were massively saved by Jordan Burns coming on around 65 minutes - he injected a startling level of pace to the game and made an immense individual break to score Ealing's 3rd try. The bonus point was within Ealing's grasp in the last five minutes, but Matt Cornish went for one pass too many when he might have been better served by putting his head down (also created by a Burns break). Still, the phase of play led to an Ealing penalty kick for the win.

Ampthill look every bit a Championship calibre club to me. Also, I'd keep an eye out for them in an upcoming issue of Rugby World Magazine based on the photographer that was there. No issue with the official this week ;)

A small crowd but a decent game - well played Hartbury that lad playing 8 is a star turn and was my man of the match. First job done by Jersey in that they make the last 8 but hats off to the coaches for managing the squad and giving game time to a couple of lads who have almost been invisible and bringing Van Dam & Pembo back into the frame for the real challenge next week. Jersey can beat the barcodes at KP and I'm going!

And... the Beeb have corrected it to 17 now.

Kimbo - I thought you'd completed enough laps of the block to have realised that the BBC results/tables at our level are not to be relied on [smiley face emoji] - I think you'd have to say the odds for a home QF were more than 'slightly favouring' Cov when you have a 3-pt lead (20-17) in the rankings and both sides have tough away games.

Entertaining game at our place I thought. Took a while to put Hartpury away, partly down to Reds' inaccuracy, but also Hartpury's tenacity. I too hope that we can give it a good crack at KP next weekend - nothing to lose.
