Predictions:
Ampthill 0 v 5 Cornish Pirates - Pirates looking really good now and can’t see any slip-ups here
Jersey 5 v 1 Coventry - Jersey have had a week off which won’t have done them any harm. Coventry should start to improve but I don’t think they’ll win on the Island 
Doncaster 5 v 1 Nottingham - obviously Covid dependant but hopefully this game gets the all clear because it’s one of my favourite games of the season. Donny should take it but this game is normally tight
Bedford 5 v 2 London Scottish - Bedford are the great unpredictables, given their recent improvements Scottish should be right in this one and could sneak it but going for a home win
Richmond 4 v 1 Ealing - no, don’t adjust your glasses. Mighty Mond always get up for this game and they beat Ealing on their last league visit to the RAG two years ago. I just have a feeling about this fixture…. If Ealing aren’t right on their mettle I think they could get turned over.

Ampthill 1 v Cornish Pirates 4 - A's were much better in the second half of the game against Ealing, and if they can keep that up, then they'll give Pirates a very tough match.
Jersey 5 v Coventry 0 - Coventry improving, but not fast enough.
Doncaster 5 v Nottingham 0 - A 'get well' game for Donny.
Bedford 4 v London Scottish 1 - Funny feeling that this will be closer than most expect.
Richmond 0 v Ealing 5 - I reserve the right to change this after I see the squads. Ben Ward has a history of putting out a weakened team with no chemistry and getting turned over. That said, it is a very short away trip against a part-time outfit.

Ampthill 1 v Cornish Pirates 5 - Pirates weren't tested too hard this weekend so should have enough steam in the boiler room to make this one happen.
Jersey 4 v Coventry 1 - Coventry improving now some players are coming back could just as easy go Jersey 1 v Coventry 4
Doncaster 5 v Nottingham 1 - The boys better pull their socks up or it could be grim
Bedford 5 v London Scottish 1 - Scottish may make Bedford work for their money
Richmond 0 v Ealing 5 - Sorry Richmond but I can't see this gong any other way - but go out there and treat this as your cup final.
Onward and Upwards C'mon Donny!

Amps 1-4 Pirates This should be a close hard game and if Pirates cant keep their discipline could easily go the other way.
Jersey 4-1 Cov Two well matched squads with loads of injuries but at home I see Jersey winning by 4-5 points
Donny 5-0 Nottingham - At home Donny by 10-15 points with 4 tries
Blues 5-0 Exiles - LS improving but Blues backs to give them a comfortable win
Mond 0-5 Ealing - This could easily be another banana skin but Ealing should grind a win out.
Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD.

I am sure the answer is probably '' no'' but could islander confirm whether or not Jersey are streaming Saturday's match please.

Hi CK42. Regret the game won’t be streamed, don’t believe any club have streamed games this season with the exception of the Pirates. There will be live commentary available via BBC Jersey. Just a reminder while I’m on that KO is 3pm & tix must be bought online in advance, they won’t be available at the gate… Thumbs Up

Ampthill 4-1 Cornish Pirates. Pirates are a top side but The As keep surprising everyone, especially in their own back yard.
Jersey 5-0 Coventry. An encouraging result for Coventry last week but Jersey will show them no mercy on the island.
Doncaster 5-0 Nottingham. Doncaster will be looking to forget last Saturday's result and what better way is there than a local derby against a team that is struggling.
Bedford 5-0 London Scottish. A good crowd at Goldington Road should see a comfortable home win.
Richmond 0-5 Ealing Trailfinders. I can see Ealing losing again to some of the top sides this season, but they should win easily against all the part time sides.
Always trying to stay bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

Ampthill 4 v Cornish Pirates 1 … The Mob were unlucky not to beat the Reds in jersey and if i am honest, i was disappointed with the Pirates when they were over. So on that basis alone, i am going for a tight home win.

Jersey 5 v Coventry 0 … Cov had a good win last week against The Blues and will want to follow that up with a strong performance at The Stade. This game may be coming a little too soon for an improving side.

Doncaster 5 v Nottingham 0 … A lot depends on the weather, but if conditions are decent, then it would be a shock for it not to be a convincing home win. That said, Nottingham may have a huge amount to say about that!

Bedford 5 v London Scottish 0 … Sorry LS, but the Bedford backs are just too strong. If the LS forwards can starve Bedford of the ball and keep it up their jumpers for 80 minutes, then they may have some hope. Otherwise, it could be a long afternoon.

Richmond 1 v Ealing 4 … Oh my word, this is a banana skin if ever I saw one. Mond are a very capable side and at the RAG can be difficult to beat. A close win for the favourites, but it could be very close.
Tackle Low!!!!!

The 1.30pm kick off at Amps is helpful I'll stream & watch the first half and should still make it all the way down South to St Peter for a 3pm kick off.

It is a long and arduous journey CorporalCarrot - make sure you allocate some time for a rest enroute.

Ampthill 1 - 4 Cornish Pirates - It would not surprise me if Amps won this
Bedford 5 - 0 London Scottish  - Scottish getting stronger . .  might be a good battle but Blues should have too much
Doncaster 5 - 0 Nottingham - Bounce back but a tough encounter
Jersey 5 - 1 Coventry  . .  weather might even it up, but at home Red should be too strong.
Richmond 0 - 5 Ealing - Richmond just have too many injuries to starting players . . . I hope I am wrong . . but it would be the biggest ever shock!
Run with it
