At Port-e-Chee, Douglas South take on Ramsey. A win for Douglas keeps them in the hunt while a win for Ramsey could virtually hand the title to Douglas North. In the reverse fixture Douglas South won 55-34 at the Mooragh Park. Ramsey did however gift them a couple of scores and will feel that a win is not impossible. Joe Corkish and Craig Martin did most of the damage at the Mooragh and the Douglas coach Carl Murray also weighed in with a couple.

Ramsey’s try machine Danny Howard scored four at the other end in that game but he sat out last Saturday with injury and his return to action is limited to a place on the bench. Also making up a strong bench is Dan Bonwick who returns from a "hurty ankle". Ramsey will also miss hooker Magnus Black who picked up a shoulder injury last week with Ben Hardman getting his first start of the season. The other change is Jamie Arneil getting a back row start to replace Dave Keenan who simply can't afford the diesel to get his Chelsea tractor all the way to Douglas.

The early forecast for Saturday is dry with strong winds and that could just favour Douglas.
