Anthony Cope starts for the first time this season as Oxford Harlequins host Coney Hill in National 3 South West.

The experienced scrum half, who has been recovering from a shoulder injury, replaces Nick Strizaker (unavailable) as Quins’ third No 9 in as many weeks.

Flanker Tim Knapp is doubtful with an arm injury, while Xavier Andre returns on the wing.

Chinnor look to maintain their unbeaten run with a long trip to Barnstaple.

Leading players, No 8 Matt Payne, full back James Comben and centre Danny Wells, return to the Henley Hawks side for their top-of-the-table National 2 South clash with Jersey at Dry Leas.

Wells’s centre partner Ali James is fit to start for leaders Henley after needing emergency dental treatment following an injury in last week’s victory over Wetscombe Park.

Lock Howard Parr has work commitments, but Dave Clements moves from No 8 to cover his position.

James Gaunt comes in at scrum half, with Kenny Sewell dropping to the bench.

Second-placed Jersey, who have also won all four of their matches, are expected to include former Henley fly half Tommy Turner.
