Easter Weekend Re-arranged Matches

So only the two te-arranged games this weekend.
Donny 1 - 5 Jersey … Donny have been playing well of late and The Reds will need to be at their very best to come away with the victory that they need. Ultimately, I think that they cancel each other out up front, but Jersey’s backs and defense has been very good this season, so this is where the game will be won or lost IMHO.
Ampthill 1 - 5 Coventry … This should be an absolute belter. The Mob are playing great rugby this season as are Cov. Home advantage will make this a close affair, but the visitors to all hit guarantee third spot.

Have a great Easter everyone

doncaster  0 5 jersey

My earlier post repeated the Brizmeister's predictions so for my own account:

Doncaster 1-5 Jersey. I think this is the better option to watch off the two games today with Jersey continuing their efforts to keep pressure on Ealing.
Ampthill 4-1 Coventry. My prediction is based on history. Ampthill win at Ampthill and Coventry win at Coventry. This game could be decided by which side kick their conversions, and with both teams on a roll, it should be close.

WE can always send some Pasties up, you don't need a knife, fork or plate with them 

Doncaster 1 - 5 Jersey

There is a massive amount of competition for places at the moment as some long term absentees are returning from injury. That puts pressure (hopefully in a positive way) on those in the 23. If you don’t perform, there is a queue of players wanting your shirt.

The Donny starting Tight Head must be a cracking player to keep Jake Armstrong on the bench. The contest between Grahamslaw & Armstrong would be worth the admission money on its own.

I can assure you Jake is an absolute legend in Jersey and the real surprise is that you don't start with him. Grahamslaw on the Jersey loose head is seriously big so I would have loved to see him pack down against Jake.
