MV's 1st XV will be looking to get back into winning ways as they welcome Littleborough who are having a tough season following a points deduction that hit them before the season had even kicked off. Confidence is a big thing and if MV can convert their confidence into solid phases of possession and points they will win games. Defence is good but more points need to be constructed and put on the board.

Mv's 2nd XV head northwards to Colne and Nelson and can be assured of a heavy afternoons rugby after the wet weather of recent days. Improved form since November has seen MS win 4 from 7 so things are going in the right direction.

Local Rugby outshines League rugby this Sat as neighbours old rivals Ashton On Mersey 1st visit MacPherson Park to face Trafford MV 3rd. ko 2.15pm

Trafford MV 3rd XV are mustering their troops to face an intense battle against neighbouring Ashton On Mersey 1st XV.
The Clubs have had a friendly rivalry in recent years hosting interclub pre-season frindlys but League Rugby means the teams cross the white line with a renewed rivalry. MV will need to step up and meet 4th placed AOM head on if they want to get the better of an organised 1st XV set up.
Both Clubs are calling on their supporters from local area's to come down and get behind your respective team in good old rugby fashion and enjoy a sporting afternoon. Bar Open 1.00pm for supporters and guests of both clubs.

All team squads are looking for new players to add pace and power to the games and give MV better strength in depth.
