Tom Burns writes....

This Saturday sees newly promoted Barnstaple take the long journey to Kingsey Road. The men from Devon will be massively keen to get their first league win of the season.

Barnstaple are looking to establish themselves in National 2 South, having had a very successful season in National 3 South-West. Barnstaple have recruited heavily from relegated Launceston. Second rows Bryn Jenkins and Ben Hilton will look to add some fire power up front. Jack Murphy, ex Plymouth captain, will look to get the back line flowing against a thus far tight and physical Chinnor defence.

Chinnor, unbeaten so far this season, will be taking nothing for granted in what will be a tough test against against a very physical side, desperate to get the first win of their campaign.
As usual, the players will greatly appreciate their home support!

The Chinnor side to face Barnstaple is:

1. Tom Price
2. Jon Phipps
3. Jay Tyack
4. Nathan Hannay
5. CJ Osazuwa
6. Richard Thorpe
7. George Messum
8. Tom Burns
9. Frank Jones
10. Bertie Hopkin
11. Henry Lamont
