Match Preview

On Saturday the 2's continue on their quest to win the league when they host Illogan Park RFC with a 2.30pm kick-off.

The 'Rats' who play their rugby, not surprisingly, in the park of the nearby village are having a bit of a tough season. Park have only won 3 of their 13 matches, those coming against Camborne School of Mines, Bodmin and Liskeard-Looe. This places them in 10th place on 13 points with a -334 points difference. Last time out Park lost to Newquay Hornets at home by 7-31. The Reds though need to be on their guard as in the corresponding fixture last season Park came out on top by 15-12.

The Redruth 2nds continued their winning ways last Saturday with a thumping 92-7 win over Helston RFC, this win kept them in the top spot with 64 points, 3 ahead of rivals for the title Saltash RFC. Saltash do though have a slightly better points difference, + 530 compared to the Reds +501.
At present their leading scorer Dean Wills is also the Nations leading scorer with 217 points and along with Jayden Oakes he is the leagues highest try scorer with 11.

Referee: Andrew Wetherelt

Weather watch: While the rest of the nation shivers it will be a balmy 7 degrees in Redruth on Saturday with only a gentle breeze from the east to keep you cool!

Look out for team news on Friday.
