Exiles set to revive old rivalry!

London Cornish welcome Belsize Park to the REMPF for the first league encounter between the sides since the 1993-4 season, and the first at the REMPF since 1992-3. The fixture used to be a regular one in the days when both clubs sat in the Middlesex leagues, but battle has not been joined since then. Park have had a decent opening to their first foray into London 1 South, sitting comfortably in the top half of the table, whilst Cornish will hope to carry their recent revival into Saturdays match. The return of 3 Cornishmen bolster the exiles, former Penryn front row Tony Pellow starts at loose head, Bude's own James La Broy returns at 6, and former Falmouth scrum-half Andy Munro-Lott is back on the bench, where there are also returns for the experienced pair of Mark O'Leary and Cameron Crozier. Miles Lloyd gets the nod at 9, Skip Ed Carne switches to 10 and Eji Erhirhie is recalled on the wing. The 2s are also in league action, an increasingly strong squad hosting Old Haberdashers 2s in the Middlesex Merit Table Prem division. You can follow the action on our twitter feed, and a round up of the day can be found right here late Saturday or Sunday.
