The following squad has been selected to play the re-arranged game against Old Patesians (a) this Saturday:
Jon Aplin comes in for his 1st xv debut in place of the unavailable Richard Bright. Stuart Lowe replaces Ross Morshead with Ollie Pyne moving into his favoured position in the back row and former colt Brad Cooke steps up onto the bench.
"Full credit must go to lead physio Tammy Emmins and her team for "patching up" a number of our squad to allow them to play this weekend. It is a critical time in our season, and we have a number of injuries and unavailabilities this weekend, so to go into this weekends game with very minimal change from last week, is a credit to the work going on in the treatment room. We are lacking Shane Cooper, Nigel Berry, Chris Bentley, Ross Morshead, Jack Pyne, Dave Bargent, Joe Day, Lloyd Watkins, Alex Goldman, Richard Bright, Paul Morgan and Richard Cadywould this weekend."
