After a two week break, our 1st XV are back in action as they host Guernsey 2nd XV in Hampshire Counties II. 

Jason Berry’s side welcome table topping Guernsey 2nd XV to Ganger Farm on Saturday afternoon with kick-off at 1:30pm.

Our 1st XV head into the game off the back of a tough afternoon in Havant during their last outing as they suffered a 43-17 defeat so will be looking to turn things around despite the challenges Guernsey pose.

Jason Berry’s side will be looking to make amends for their difficult start to the season which sees them sit 11th in the league standings on five points, with Ventnor one

Saturday’s visitors head into the clash following a 61-7 victory over Havant 3rd XV and currently lead the league standings by four points over New Milton with six wins from six outings and a points difference of 225. This was helped by their 102-19 victory over US Portsmouth at the end of October.

Berry’s Pre-Match Thoughts:

Berry: “They’re obviously top of the league. They’ve played all of their games and secured maximum points, so it’s going to be one hell of a challenge.

“We’re just going to have to literally chuck the kitchen sink at it
