Moseley Expecting Battle Royal with Jersey

For their first Championship fixture of 2013 Moseley entertain Jersey at Billesley Common in what promises to be a nerve-jangling bottom of the table clash on Saturday.

Before Christmas Jersey gained a tremendous win at home against Leeds in the last round of Championship matches, and this took them above Moseley in the table for the first time this season. Meanwhile the Birmingham side played creditably well at Nottingham without reward, a performance which Coaches Kevin Maggs and Dave Hilton will want to build on.

These sides faced each other in the Channel Isles back in September, with Moseley taking the spoils. Since then Jersey have gained experience though, and a close contest is expected.

Starting 15: 01. Steffan THORP; 02. Sam WILKES; 03. Ben EVANS; 04. Addison LOCKLEY; 05. Buster LAWRENCE; 06. Neil MASON; 07. Ben PONS; 08. Ben PIENAAR; 09. Sam BROWN; 10. Glynn HUGHES; 11 Simon HUNT; 12. Charlie HAYTER; 13. Greg KING; 14. Anders MOGENSON; 15. Billy ROBINSON.
