Reds Take On Ealing In Top Table Clash

Thursday, 20 April 2023 12:33

Jersey Reds are host Ealing in a potential title-deciding Championship match tomorrow afternoon (22 April).

Ealing Trailfinders are currently sitting at the top of the table with 92 points, with the Reds one point behind ahead of what could be one of their most crucial matches of the season.

With just two games left in the Championship, the Reds must win both to raise the trophy.

Harvey Bilijon, Director of Rugby, says his men have the home advantage at the Stade Santander for both the Ealing and Ampthill matches.

"I think first and foremost, we've got to get the results right, we need a victory this weekend and a victory next weekend which are two tough asks but if we can get that right there will be a lot of questions asked and it's an exciting place for the club to be at."

Jersey's team have only lost one game in the competition leading up to this weekend, being one of the strongest seasons the club has ever had.

"We talk about that word 'pressure' and we've had it every game for the last few games, with this run in I think we've got an opportunity to just go and express ourselves in front of our home supporters this weekend and I look forward to that."

Captain Lewis Wynne and Coach Rob Webber have been speaking to Jersey Reds TV.
