Match Preview

After a unenforced rest weekend last week, Hove make the trip to Crowborough in a fixture that may set the course for the remainder of the season.

Team wise, Tyler 'Rae yeeeee haaaaa' Hooper makes his return after concussion, Ian Saunders returns from his self diagnosed hip injury, Ian got 80 minutes for the 2's last week and played a stormer, one just hopes that he can use his ant eater tricks in Saturday's fixture. In the back row, Rupert Philips comes in at 8 after a well due day off from saving lives, Captain Martin MacDonald shifts to open side to accommodate Rupert. Behind the scrum, Danny O'Connor comes in at 9 after impressing for the 2's last week partnering Phil Dugard at 10. In the back three, Max Marshall comes in on the wing and Bryn Garish slots in at 15. Toby Brown, Luke Buckton Taylor and Rene Pavlides make up the bench.

Crowborough are unbeaten at home this season so it will be an extremely difficult challenge for the boys but Social Sec and club legend Chris Knott said "the boys have trained well, we had over 30 at training this week and there has been a big emphasis on our physicality, ultimately its about the fine margins and if we can win those, we will be in a good place".
