Chinnor will be without centre Sam Stoop again for tomorrow’s National 3 South West trip to Exmouth.

Stoop suffered a recurrence of a knee injury last week in his first game since September 25. Huw Morgan comes in.

Chinnor head coach Jason Bowers said: “We have got 19 points from the last four games, so that’s good form.

“There are only seven points separating the top four, so we are full of confidence.

“The other good thing is that this is our last long trip.”

Next up, Chinnor play leaders Hartpury College, second-placed Old Patesians and then Quins.

“It will keep the fans interested right up to the Christmas break,” added Bowers.

Second-from-bottom Wallingford will be without lock Mike Turner for their South West 1 East clash at basement boys Oakmeadians.

Turner is unavailable, while scrum half Matt Dawes returns to the squad.

Director of rugby Martin Moran said: “We have basically got to win this one.

“This is the first year we have had the bonus-point system, so it is difficult to know what is needed to stay up.

“But I think 40 points should be enough. That will mean at least six more wins and some bonus points.”

Captain James Lamb and scrum half Gareth Campbell return for Witney’s home clash with High Wycombe.

Lock Charlie Bennett, prop Matt Calley and utility back Phil Gouldie drop to the bench, demonstrating the leaders’ strength in depth.

Flanker Ian Keevil returns, but No 8 Simon Brand is unavailable as Banbury Bulls visit Statford-Upon-Avon in Midlands 1 West.

Flanker Barty Carson is set to replace Adam Holloway (calf) for Henley Hawks’ visit to Lydney in National 2 South.

Lock Dave Clements returns after food poisoning.
