Welcome Break Needed

Tomos Returns
By New Cherry
October 24 2025

We might be only four games into the Prem season but the international brrak can't come soon enough for the Cherry and Whites who head down to Exeter on Saturday kick off 3.00.

The injury list just continues to grow with Ollie Thorley, Ben Loader and Josiah Edwards-Giraud added after last week's 34-49 home defeat by Bristol.

Fortunately, captain Tomos Williams returns at srum half, while there will be a debut on the wing for Ben Redshaw and the very promising Academy graduate Ben Cotgreave coming in on the opposite wing.

Will they get enough ball to make an impression? Nepo Laulala returns in the front row and he will be the only change .to the starting pack.

And some experienced cover on the bench incuding new signing Dian Bleuler.
