PREVIEW: Carmarthen Quins v Cardiff

Following three weeks commitment in the British and Irish Cup, the Quins return to League action this Saturday as they welcome Cardiff RFC to The Park.

Last season the Quins did the double over their city rivals who will be keen to reverse that trend this weekend.

Quins and Cardiff currently hold third and fourth positions respectively in the league and it promises to be an extremely hard fought contest.

With both teams on 19 points the Quins have continued this season where they left off in 2013/14, whilst Cardiff has strengthened their squad considerably and are clearly intent on making their mark this campaign. The Quins however are currently one of only two unbeaten sides in the competition and will need to maintain that record if they are to keep in contention for the top spot in the Premiership.

The sponsorship lounge is full on Saturday in anticipation of a titanic struggle between two in-form squads and it should be a great day out for all members and supporters who can make it to one of the ‘must see’ fixtures of the season.

Centre Rhys Williams is on loan to Newport Gwent Dragons and he is the only first choice player missing from the backs. In the forwards Shaun Jones and Lee Taylor make up the second row in the absence of Haydn Pugh.

Carmarthen Quins: 15. Dion Jones 14. Chris Banfield 13. Iolo Evans 12. Morgan Griffiths 11. Dylan Morgan 10. Dan Jones 9. Rhodri Wells; 8. Rory Gallagher 7. Ellis Lloyd 6. Will Boyde 5. Shaun Jones 4. Lee Taylor 3. Ian Jones (Capt) 2. Rhodri Clancy 1. Gethin Robinson
Replacements: 16. Steff Phillips 17. Bedwyr Davies 18. Javan Sebastian 19. Aidan Laxton 20. Kieran Hardy 21. Craig Evans 22. Jason Harries 23. Gavin Thomas
