For the 1st XVI it’s 7/7 sitting top of the table clear of second place by 14.5 points.

For the 2nd XVI it’s 6/7 sitting top of the table either 6/7 points clear of second place with a result pending.

For the 3rd Team its second bottom, however, have turned their league campaign round now picking up points and clawing closer to the safety zone.

Still all to play for in the second half of the season!

GENTS LEAGUE

It’s the final week of the first half of the league campaign this evening. We have only two teams in action tonight as the 2nd XV1 received a 9-0 victory from London Road Foundry BC.

Regardless of results tonight the 2nd XVI will remain top of the table going into the second half of the fixtures.

The 1st XVI sit top of the table and travel to second place Leith BC. A win or even a small margin defeat for the 1st XVI will see them also remain top of the table going into the second half of the fixtures

The 3rd team will be looking to continue their winning run at home against Carrick Knowe “A” putting more points on the board. They currently sit second bottom 3 points from safety but a win tonight and other results going in their favour could lift them out of the relegation zone going into the second half of the season
