Friday 8th November Harlequins v Ealing Sale v Caldy Bedford v Ampthill Saturday 9th November Bath v Bristol Exeter v Hartpury Gloucester v Cornish Pirates Leicester v Coventry Northampton v Nottingham Saracens v London Scottish Sunday 10th November Newcastle v Doncaster Following last weekend's results, I can't see any surprises other than Bath v Bristol giving an indication of what strength the Premiership squads can deliver an International weekend - or whether, like the French, the league could function through the Six Nations. Bedford v Ampthill should deliver a packed Goldington Road with Bedfordshire rugby's local derby.

I'm going to The Stoop on Friday night to watch Quins v Ealing. Hoping it will be a competitive match, and Ealing may cause an upset I think. Quins were run fairly close by Scottish at The RAG last weekend so you never know, although that was largely a 3rd string Quins side in reality, and they'll certainly not want to lose on home soil. With Marler retiring from international duty, will he feature...or prefer the week off! Hoping the remainder of the Champ sides can give a good account of themselves, maybe a famous win for Cov is on the cards, you never know.

Exeter, desperate for a win, fielded a very strong side against Pirates. Hopefully Gloucester will field more of a development side and we won't take another fearful hiding. Going to enjoy going to Kingsholm whatever, though - always wanted to go there, so it'll be lovely to see The Pirates take to that iconic field. ------------- *Stalwart |

Ealing Trailfinders to face Harlequins: Strong squad. Would have liked Zok or Jordy in at the back row.

| Harlequins 38 (BP) - Ealing 33 (BP) - FT - Ealing gave a good account of themselves, and were only really undone by 3 yellow cards. Great line outs all night, and scored a cracker at the end to get the LBP |

Friday 8th November Harlequins 38 v 33 Ealing (5-2) Well done Ealing, kept in the fight all night and back line looked slick. Sale 40 v 7 Caldy (5-0) Bit of a hiding for Caldy, managing just a penalty try. The wait goes on for a win this season Bedford 26 v 6 Ampthill (5-0) Efficient job done for The Blues, Mob missing their Saracens DRs and have now scored only 6 points in last 2 games. |
