Lineup: Ealing Trailfinders vs Ampthill

Ealing Trailfinders welcome Ampthill in Round Eighteen of the Champ in a big to extend their winning record

Ben Ward has named his match day squad to face Ampthill at Trailfinders Sports Club on Saturday 21 February.

Josh Taylor returns to the starting XV as skipper and is joined by Vice Club Captain Jordy Reid and Gabriel Mann in the back row.

Ben Ward names a revised front row after last weekend’s win over Hartpury: Elliot Chilvers starts at loosehead with PJ Sheck at tighthead. Mike Willemse makes his third appearance in a matchday squad this season after recently returning from a pectoral injury.

David Bridge retains his place in the engine room and is joined by Matas Jurevicius.

The half-back pairing sees George Worboys start at fly-half to join Michael Stronge at nine.

Jordan Holgate comes in at inside centre with Will Parry on the outside.

Michael Dykes and Tobi Wilson retain their places in the back three after their attacking link up last weekend that saw the pair of them score three tries out of the eight against Hartpury. Joining them in the back three for his debut is Trailfinders Academy product Sam Rockley.

Kick-off is 3:00 pm, Saturday 20th February at Trailfinders Sports Club.
