James Pritchard has the honour of playing for the Baa Baas next week so he'll be missing from the side which travels to darkest Yorkshire for our last away league game  ..

So Steffan Jones wll be at  fullback in place of Pritchard.

Henry Staff switches to centre with Dean Adamson back on the wing after injury.  Mike Howard is in the second row and Hayden Thompson-Stringer starts at Number 8.
 

As the season winds down the club is still busy planning for next with Myles Dorrian back on a two year deal for the third time and new signings Mark Flanagan (lock) and Jack Culverhouse (prop).

Paul Tupai and Tom Williams have signed new contracts.

Blues: 15. Steffan Jones   14. Pat Tapley 13. Henry Staff 12. Mike Le Bourgeois 11. Dean Adamson 10. Jake Sharp 9. Luke Baldwin 1. Camilo Parilli-Ocampo 2. Charlie Clare 3. James Currie 4. Mike Howard 5. Harry Wells   6. Justin Blanchet   7. Nick Fenton-Wells (c) 8. Hayden Thompson-Stringer

Reps: TJ Harris, Tom Williams, Phil Boulton, Paul Tupai , Darryl Veenendaal , Baden Kerr, Ollie Dodge

Losing 2 players to potentially serious injuries after about 10 mins according to Twitter probably didn't help.

The bad injuries disrupted the Blues initially, but they held out and dominated the scrum throughout. Meanwhile the incompetent ref did his best to cancel out any advantage by unexplainable decisions. When he did get it right (ball held up by Tapley) the linesman (who was further away) overruled him - Priceless. Too many penalties again; but a glimmer of hope. Need to demolish average teams like this next season.

After a slow start I thought we more than held our own. Until Kerr threw the ball at NFW I thought we were on for a win.

It was certainly a better performance than the cup game against them and we battled for the entire 80mins. Can't fault the players' commitment.
