Here are my guestimations / hopes
Hartpury 5 vs 1 Cornish Pirates - Home win for Pury Cornish not quite on the money Ealing Trailfinders 2 vs 5 Jersey Reds Controversial call I know Doncaster Knights 5 vs 1 Caldy Home win on a quality pitch Nottingham 5 vs 1 Coventry proper guess this one Bedford 5 vs 2 Ampthill Big crowds roar the blues to a win but Ampts to keep them honest Richmond 5 vs 0 London Scottish just as easy the other way round and Home advantage |

Pury 4-0 Pirates At home with a few lads from the prem Pury should take this one
Ealing 2-2 Jersey No pressure Ealing you need five points here but this should be a proper rugby contest and any points for Jersey will be a great result - wish I could be there. Donny 5-1 Caldy Banker home win but Caldy fight for a point Archers 4-1 Cov Could go either way two well matched teams Blues 3-3 Amps Should be a brilliant contest in front of a great horde Mond 1-4 McQuins Could go either way but a handful of points in it. Hoping you all have a great festive season and safe journey if you are travelling.

Hartpury 4 - 1 C Pirates … Given up trying to second guess The Pirates this season. You really don’t know from 1 week to the next, so will go with home win.
Ealing 4 - 1 Jersey … Both unbeaten, something has to give. For the prediction league I am going for a tight home win. However, Jersey are totally up for this game and if they are to win it will be from out wide. It will be tense for sure and will be won or lost on fine margins. Doncaster 5 - 0 Caldy … As much as I think that Caldy have been a breath of fresh air for the league, Donny are notoriously difficult to beat at home. Nottingham 4 - 1 Coventry … This should be a very tight game and could go either way, but I think that Nottingham will nick it. Bedford 1 - 5 Ampthill … If Bedford play like they did last week up front, then at this level they will get a similar result. However, it is due to be warmer, so the Bedford backs will be happier. Ampthill to win in front of a bumper crowd in a high scoring game. Richmond 5 - 0 LS … A ground sharing derby, but Mond are better than their league position suggests and this should be a regulation home win. |

hartpury 4 1 pirates - I'm down on Pirates away from home this year, and Hartpury have seemed to be gaining strength as the year goes on.
ealing 5 1 jersey - I write this on the basis of several injured players coming back for Ealing and making the difference. doncaster 5 0 caldy - Time to crown the King in the North, and I think that will go to the full-time professionals. nottingham 4 1 coventry - Nottingham to grind out a win at Lady Bay. bedford 1 4 ampthill - Going with historic Ampthill dominance in the Battle of Bedfordshire. richmond 5 1 scottish - Landlords to come out on top, sport mirroring life.

Hartpury 1-4 Pirates. Not sure if students go home for Christmas. Assuming some do therefore giving the Pirates a narrow win away from home.
Ealing 5-0 Jersey. I will keep forecasting a 5-0 win for all Ealing games. Doncaster 5-0 Caldy. A longish trip for Caldy to come away with nothing. At least they can try the pie. Nottingham 4-1 Coventry. Coventry’s away form is a fraction of their home form. Strange. Bedford 2-5 Ampthill. Ampthill’s forwards to score more tries than the Bedford backs. It could come down to who kicks the most conversions. Probably bigger attendance here than rest of the games put together. Richmond 4-0 London Scottish. But it could be the other way round. Or a draw. |

The Jersey side to take on Ealing tomorrow. This is as strong as we can get. Scott Van Breda is one of the top Full Backs at this level and he doesn’t even make the bench!!
If Ealing win, then good luck to them! Merry Christmas one and all. Enjoy the festive fun and the games on Boxing Day. For those watching this one, hopefully it will live up to the expectations of the unbeaten top two playing each other. May all your dreams have odd shaped balls! Backs (15-9) Brendan Owen; Ben Woollett, Alex McHenry, Jordan Holgate, Tomi Lewis; Russell Bennett, James Mitchell. Forwards (1-8) Sam Grahamslaw, Eoghan Clarke, Steve Longwell, Sean O’Connor, Macauley Cook, James Dun, Lewis Wynne (capt), Max Argyle. Replacements (16-23) TJ Harris, Greg McGrath, Adam Nicol, Hamish Bain, Tim Grey; James Elliott, Charlie Powell, Will Brown. |

Very strong side from Ealing, with an incredible bench. I suspect it will be around the 60 minute mark that Ealing pull away as the bench strength tells.

Predictions:
Hartpury 4 v 1 Cornish Pirates Ealing 2 v 5 Jersey Doncaster 5 v 1 Caldy Nottingham 5 v 2 Coventry Bedford 1 v 4 Ampthill Richmond 4 v 1 London Scottish Some fantastic games this weekend. Ealing v Jersey will be my Christmas Eve viewing that’s for sure. Ealing are favourites but just got a feeling in me water….. Jersey are going to do something special. |

You must be a mind reader mate because I thought the Jersey bench is so ridiculously strong they would win it in the last quarter. I hope both teams play to the best of their ability and discipline is maintained so that the referee can keep his cards in his pocket.
