Nottingham 1 - 5 Bedford - Blues should start climbing the table now, Notts unusually for them have started averagely.

17/10/2026
Cornish Pirates 4 - 1 Chinnor - Not much in this one but it’s hard to back against Pirates at home.
Blackheath 0 - 5 Ealing - Club looking good so far but Ealing finally hit top gear last week and when they do, it normally lasts a long time.
Caldy 4 - 1 Ampthill - Could go either way but this is a game the home side will definitely target.
Doncaster 4 - 1 Coventry - If Coventry are at their best then they should win but Donny at home will be fancying this. Should be a great game.
Hartpury 0 - 4 Worcester - Think Pury at home could stop Wuss getting the BP. Warriors should win comfortably though.

18/10/2026
Richmond 1 - 4 Rotherham - I could see Richmond winning this one but Roth are in good form and are able to win the tight ones.

Nottingham v Bedford 0-4

The Worcester supporters were quite impressed with Nottingham, but I feel Bedford are getting their form together, both in the second half against us and particularly against a strong Pirates team. I favour Bedford but maybe to fall short on the three tries more bonus.

17/10/2026
Cornish Pirates v Chinnor 4-1

Pirates very strong at home and I think they will follow up the last home win v Ealing with another home win here.

Blackheath v Ealing 0-5
Blackheath put in a very strong performance at Cov last week but although Ealing suffered their first defeat in their last away game in the last play at Pirates secured a resounding home win last week.
If Blackheath get anything out of this game it most definitely be a great result for them. Unfortunately for them I see don’t see Ealing losing two away games on the bounce and think they will ease to a bonus point win.


Caldy v Ampthill 1-4
This is a tough one to predict. Caldy ran Chinnor close in their last home game but Ampthill suffered a heavy loss at home to Doncaster last time out, having won their first three games. I think Caldy will get the bonus but I think it will be a losing one.


Doncaster v Coventry 4-1

Donny pulled out a performance everyone knows they can last week with a terrific win at Ampthill. Since Cov lost at Roth they have won three games on the trot now, the first two with powerful performances but arguably could have lost at home to Blackheath. The quality of a team though particularly in a league of fine margins is to get the win even when not at their best.
Having said that I think Donny, with home advantage will edge this but it will be close.

Hartpury v Worcester 0-5

Worcester have a 100% record this far and their squad depth I feel will be too much for Hartpury.

18/10/2026
Richmond v Rotherham 4-1

As daft as it sounds I really hate predicting the outcome of Rotherham games. This one is particularly difficult.
Let me say first of all league tables after 4 games don’t tell a great deal. Richmond held a lead against Worcester well into the second half. However Worcester were able to bring further high quality from the bench, and being full time, were able to pull away at the end.
Richmond backed this up with defeat at Chinnor but that doesn’t tell the whole story as Chinnor only managed to pull clear with two late tries.
Roths success to date has come at Clifton Lane with their only defeat coming in the away game at Worcester, which we started well but then got completely overpowered.
Roth are well capable of winning away from home but I don’t know whether they will in this game. My heart says we will win but my head thinks even a losing bonus point on the road at this level is a good result, particularly at this stage, so I will go with that although as with most of my predictions I will probably be completely wrong.
