With a strong pack out Stuart Brooks plays his 3rd position in as many games coming in for Dan Oscroft in the front row and making way for Matt Allen in the back row.

2 try impact player from last week, Jack Bacciochi and new comer Dan Lanham join Mike on the bench as forward replacements.

Kit Hemming and Will Heath are the new half back pairing whilst Dixonians man of the match Ash Mooney and Jack Mertens retain their centre pairing.

Vice captain James Mills goes to the bench whilst Will Spires moves from stand off to the wing.
