Leith play their final home league game of the season on Saturday, with the visit of 5th placed Dalkeith. Both sides come into the game off the back of 3 defeats with our visitors having gone down at Hawick Linden (35-0), at home to Trinity (17-28) and at Broughton (38-12) since the split, and Leith also looking to bounce back from reverses at the hands of Broughton (7-36), Hawick Linden (53-5) and Portobello (67-24). With neither side able to gain promotion, but looking to finish the season as strongly as possible, a good game should be assured, between two sides who like to move the ball.

Meanwhile the 2nd XV will take on their counterparts at Liberton. After a closely fought 12-12 draw with Portobello/Lismore 2s last time out in the league, as well as a lot of guys getting game time in the club XV fixture at Kinross last Friday, the 2s will be looking to continue their good form this season at Double Hedges Rd.

Another weekend ensues with over 40 boys with their hands up for Leith, which is fantastic, and team news for both squads will be available here, later in the week. As ever, your support at either game is hugely appreciated.
