A four try, to fewer than four try, draw.

If that is how the game finishes then this could be evidence in the match fixing court case

Blimey you're all right of course - must have happened previously  but not sure I can recall when and certainly not 3 times in a 6 match week!

3-2 results are very rare birds as indeed is 4-2 in which the losing side scores 4 tries and is beaten by a side which kicks it's points. The best thing about Championship rugby in my book is that well matched sides have great contests and 4-1 either way is the norm. Jersey v Pirates matches over the years have been brilliant contests often settled by a single point or two either way. It looks like a wet and windy night for rugby at St Peter but I hope we see a close match between two good teams rather than a cricket score either way.

Cov without 4 injured senior players, al in the pack, Harry Seward, Jordon Poole, Josh Bainbridge & Adam Peters. Awesome task for the young squad

Here is the Coventry squad list. Worth noting that the 4 injured players mentioned above by CK42 include the team captain, and his Hurst choice replacement as Captain. Toby Trinder, standing in for them did a fine job last week.

One thing we can say though. with the exception of two Bath Academy loanees, brought in as injury cover, this is a Coventry squad, of contracted players, rather than a collection of loan and DR players from the Premiership.

1.Toby Trinder (c) 

2.Suva Ma’asi 

3.Jake Bridges 

4.James Tyas 

5.George Smith 

6.Fred Betteridge 

7.Tom Ball 

8.Senitiki Nayalo 

9.Fin Ogden 

10.Evan Mitchell 

11.Louis James 

12.Ollie Betteridge 

13.Will Rigg 

14.Will Talbot-Davies 

15.Louis Brown

16.Will Biggs 

17.Ollie Andrews 

18.Archie Maggs 

19.Frankie Read 

20.James Martin 

21.Will Lane 

22.Pat Pellegrini 

23.Lucas Titherington

Ealing Trailfinders have an extensive list of injuries to key players ,mostly wingers !. Alan Walker is a key player and Pat Howard , hooker and centre. The list is endless but there have been some good young players to step up. 
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.

Every club has injuries. Bedford had their top 4 2nd rows injured last week (so had to draft someone in from Nat 1), as well as our starting 3, 13 and 15. Of those, one 2nd row is back on the bench this week. The number 8 was making his first appearance of the season. Every club has injuries and it would be very rare/lucky to have your strongest team available all at the same time. Coventry fans seem to have a bit of a chip on their shoulder about this, I don’t think missing 4 players is particularly noteworthy.

TBF, Cov are missing quite q few more than the four quoted. They're noteworthy due to the fact that they are most of the more experienced core. Were it not for Tiki Nayalo, the the average player in the squad would still be in sucking on rusks age territory
