Sorry I have been quiet, had a busy few weeks.


Harpenden V Rochford Hundred 

Hertford V Letchworth Garden City 

Shelford V Sudbury 

Tring v ON's 

Oundle V Westcliff 

Colchester V Bedford Athletic 


Some shock results of late, would be good to get peoples take on the teams they have watched. 


I watched Letchworth V Tring this weekend.Great game of rugby, Tring should have stole it at the end just a mindless offload after a great break. Tring had a fair few changes to their usual pack. 

I think Tring didn't look like the Tring I have seen in the past, they were not their usual hard nosed clinical selves. Letchworth looked ever improving and are beginning to click. Few standouts from the game were Letchworth's 7 & 13, and Tring's 6 & 9.

This league is ridiculously even going into Xmas. Really is a case of anyone can beat anyone.  This goes all the way to last day I reckon. 

Happy Christmas all.

If you like your stats:

12 points between 1st & 2nd
12 points between 2nd & 9th
12 points between 9th & 12th

No other L5 league is anything like as close.

Half the clubs have games in hand vs others (or one less rest week to look at it another way!)

As you say 'Carlos' anybody can beat anybody so the table can change week to week, with 9/10 games to go those bonus points are going to be even more valuable, as well as depth of squads

So that's that then. Predictions of a tight end to the season were way wide of the mark like most of my efforts. 

Congratulations Colchester,  commiserations Westcliff and Rochford. 

Now everyone else is safe, do we start to see old hands being rested and youngsters given a go?

Looks like the league is already starting to divide into 3. Those that splashed some cash (if you haven't seen Oundle yet, watch out), those that will have to fight to stay up (what happened to Harpenden over the summer), and those that will be somewhere in the middle.

Not sure which of the second two we fall into yet.

Certainly looks that way, though as i'm sure you know ,we don't fall into the 'slashing' category!!!  
Will know more of where we are after a tuff test tomorrow, hope you go well up in the floods! 
No, not seen them yet, heard a few rumours through. 
Harpenden ,no idea, bit of a surprise so far.
