The Black & Ambers travel to North Wales after two high-scoring home wins saw them climb to fourth place in the SRC league. One of those wins was against next Saturday’s opponents, RGC, but it would be a mistake to take anything for granted as they are a very different outfit when they play at home.
After those two emphatic wins the coaches have made few changes with Barney Langton Cryer replacing Callum Bradbury in the pack and Lucus Welch and Fin Baker coming into the backs. The reshuffle sees Harrison James in the outside half spot.
