The Met will be hoping that a return to Dornan Fields, where they were narrowly defeated by Old Blues a fortnite ago, will again encourage the Met squad to turn up and play to their best ability

After the promising performance with a very trimmed-down squad in the first outing of the season, Met entertained Effingham & Leatherhead at Imber Court. Unfortunately, only thirteen players were available including the two newcomers who were drafted in at the eleventh hour, Jae Cha and Fabian Mercer. A "game " friendly saw the Met lose by 6 tries to two. The Met go into the next weekend on the same points as KCS but having played a game less. KCS come off the back of a defeat against League 2 newcomers Thamesians and Worth Old Boys. They did, however, notch over 50 points when defeating Old Blues in their opening game.

The Met go in to Saturday’s game with just one replacement but are pleased to see Will Allen and Cormac Healy in the line up and Harry Greenwood makes his league debut at inside centre.

By contrast, the Old Boys name a 20 man squad and will be keen to push further up the table as they bid to return to League 1 at the first time of asking
