DORCHESTER host a big game at Surcouf Park as table-toppers Wimborne come to Surcouf Park (2.30pm).

Dorchester welcome Wimborne in a Counties One Tribute Southern South clash with the unbeaten leaders holding a 14-point lead.

Head coach Josh Ovey knows his young team will need to be at their best, concentrate from the off, and give their all in the search to be the first team that beat their visitors.

On the back of three strong wins, confidence is high in the squad, with a number of players competing for shirts in the team this will be a stern test for the young side.

With a free-scoring back line, the aim will be to keep a high pace in defence and have the ball moving.

The key partnership between Jack Adams and Alex Peel is working well, and both Deklyn Bane and Callum King in the centres are carrying hard and defending well.

The inimitable Tom Louch will provide a solid foundation in the scrum and pack will work hard to dominate their opposite numbers.

The county town outfit’s two quick wingers, Cohen Emery and Brook Legg, are back and ready to add to their try tally.

Elsewhere, Weymouth & Portland could win the division below if Oakmeadians fail to beat Lytchett Minster, while Bridport visit Swanage & Wareham Seconds and Puddletown travel to East Dorset Dockers.

The A XV have now finished their campaign in Counties Three Tribute Dorset & Wilts, coming a strong second to the eventual winners Ellingham & Ringwood.

Tomorrow’s friendly game against Wimborne Seconds, who sit third in the league above them, will be a good test for them to see how far they have come this season.

Tony O’Connell will lead a big squad taken from both the A XV and Gladiators including the evergreen Allan Bickley.

Mark Egan makes a return to the squad whilst Paul Broadbent and Jimmy Louch both line up in the pack alongside a rare appearance from Barney Jones who may pop up on the wing.
