Saturday 1st October

Both Minety teams will be in action at Minety Fields on Saturday 1st October.

The 1st XV will be aiming to kick start their season, after two narrow defeats, against yet another new team to the D&W1N league, Frome II.  Frome will be looking for their first victory of the season after suffering defeats at Swindon on the first game of the season and a home loss to newly promoted Pewsey Vale a fortnight ago.

The 2nd XV have a very tough encounter with hitherto unbeaten Bradford on Avon II’s visiting.  The away team have enjoyed two overwhelming victories this season, beginning with  an 86-0 win at Westbury and then following that up with a comprehensive 94-7 rout of Warminster II’s.  Currently top of the table with a scoring record of 180-7, they boast a perfect 10 point total and will be a stiff challenge for Matt Stone’s side.
