Team Line-up: Jersey Reds (A) Cup
With a change in competition, it doesn’t mean there’s a change in intensity as Ben Ward and his coaching team have named a strong side for our trip to Jersey.
Up front, James Gibbons and Alun Walker will pack down next to George Davis who is making his first start of the season.
Will Montgomery switches from number eight to partner Simon Linsell in the second-row. This allows David Douglas Bridge to come in and make his first Trailfinders start, with match day captain Rob Farrar on the blindside and Simon Uzokwe on the openside.
Craig Hampson and Craig Willis continue at half-back, while Peter Robb and Reuben Bird-Tulloch will make up an exciting, new-look midfield.
The back-three sees James Cordy-Redden and Nathan Earle partner Max Bodilly, who shifts to fullback.
Tomorrow’s game at the State Santander International will kick-off at 2pm. If you are making the trip over, you can buy tickets here. Alternatively, you can follow the live coverage via Twitter.
