Wasps Men head to Actonians tomorrow to continue their winning start to the season

Looking to maintain their winning start to the season, Paul Britton's squad head down the road to Actonians this Saturday for a 3pm kick off.

In what will be another close game for the old rivals, Wasps head into the weekend with the same strong pack which saw Staines go to uncontested scrums last week. A slight re-shuffle sees last week's try scorer Patrick Doyle move from prop to second row and making their first starts this season are Gerwyn Stone at 3, Fraser Coupland at 9, Andrea Tevarotto at 11 and Tanguy Matta at 15.

Actonians will be feeling confident after two wins against us last season and be looking for a home win after their 36-31 loss to Hitchin last weekend. However Britton is confident and excited for the contest after his side's performance last week, "We lost twice to Actonians last season and want to rectify that, they are a strong team defensively and I look forward to seeing how our new players overcome the challenge. Picking from a strong squad this weekend with lots of competition for places. Hopefully we can continue to build on our performance from last weekend"
