TAUNTON Titans are looking to build on their recent upturn in fortunes as they head to Cornwall to take on Westcountry rivals Redruth on Saturday (2pm).
Tony Yapp’s side scored 10 tries - six of them by winger Ollie Rice - in a 66-15 demolition of Wimbledon last weekend (see page 116), and have now won three matches in a row.
Redruth, on the other hand, have lost both of their matches in 2018 to date, including a 46-43 reverse at Worthing Raiders last Saturday.
There is action at Hyde Park, as Taunton Warriors host Dings Crusaders in the South West Pilot League.
Elsewhere, Wiveliscombe are hoping to reclaim the top spot they lost over the weekend as they play host to Minehead Barbarians in a West Somerset derby.
The Babas will travel with confidence, having enjoyed a thumping 66-5 win at home to Stothert & Pitt last tim out.
Wellington, who are three points off top spot, host Plymstock Argaum in Cornwall & Devon.
