The Ladies take on New Ash Green for the second time in a week, but this time on the 3G at KGV on Sunday lunchtime. Guernsey will field their strongest squad this campaign says their coach, this despite the absence of Vicki Rang, ‘We go into this home game full of confidence and determination to perform better and we will be targeting not just a win, but a 5 try bonus point win which I fully believe we are capable of achieving,’ said the coach.

‘We welcome back Hannah Lord into the ranks after being out for all of this season so far due to pregnancy. She will be starting on the bench and we will be looking to utilise her hard tackling and ball carrying in the back row at some point rather than playing her in her usual half back position that she started in for much of last season. Tanya Scholtz is available this weekend but Vicki Rang is not, so Tanya moves back into her familiar No.6 spot and Ellie Whittles moves back to No.8 again. Morgan Johnson will start at 2nd Row with captain Kristine Vavere providing a powerful engine room come scrum time.’

The only other real change is bringing Chelsie Blondel into Fullback and moving Carly Parrott to the wing, which gives the side great pace out wide.
