CHINNOR head coach John Brodley has been forced to shuffle his pack for tomorrow's National 3 South trip to Cinderford as injuries take their toll.

o Centre Darren Oxley (heavy bruising) and flanker Harry Jackman (ankle) join hooker JP Immelman (groin) on the casualty list.

Full back Chris Sutton is also out after suffering a blow to the head against Hertford last week, but his replacement Ben Hewitt was likely to have been considered anyway.

Brodley said: "We knew we would get injuries so we are coping with it. I'm sure other clubs are going through it as well.

"I said right at the beginning that you are as good as the size of your squad.

"Some players may be frustrated they are not getting in the sideright now, but, rest assured, they will have their opportumities."

Immelman and Oxley should return next week, while Morgan Thompson is back from New Zealand to provide cover on the bench alongside Adam Beets.

Jaike Carter comes in at left wing with John Pritchard shifting to centre and Hewitt makes his first start of the season.

Flanker Jamie Cope and new signings Pete Davis and Jake White should all start for Oxford Harlequins' South West 1 home clash with Reading.

Flanker Cope, who is home briefly from New Zealand, and prop Tom Chapman return, but Phil Vinter is out (knee).

Lock Andy Smith, who this week signed from Newbury alongside Davis, is unavailable, but should feature next Saturday.

Quins will be wary of conceding penalties with Oxfordshire and ex-Chinnor fly half James Cathcart lining up for Reading.

Matt Hulland makes his first start of the season as Henley Hawks visit Blackheath in National Division 2.

Hulland replaces Jon Tenconi (unavailable) at blindside flanker, while Adam Slade returns at full back in place of Jim Farndon.

Skipper Jez Hicks replaces Owen Fowler at lock for Witney's Southern Counties North derby at home to Chipping Norton, who thrashed Supermarine 59-0 in their opener.

Joe Collins gets a place on the bench too after impressing for the seconds last week.

A buoyant Gosford All Blacks side travel to Wallingford in the BB&O Premier with an almost unchanged side.

Injuries to props Lee Donnelly and Pete Midgeley mean the tight-head position is yet to be decided.
