Richmond return home this Friday night with renewed energy after an impressive performance at Cambridge last weekend. Scoring a club-record points (5-54) total in the Champ was not just a much-needed result, it was a strong reflection of the hard work and belief that has been building throughout the squad.

It followed a run of narrow early-season contests, in which Richmond’s physicality and structure were evident, even if the final scoreline didn’t always reflect the level of performance. Last Saturday showed what can happen when execution and consistency align, and now there’s an opportunity to continue that growth.

Richmond remain in 12th position, but sit just one point behind Ampthill and have created clear daylight from Cambridge and London Scottish below. With plenty of rugby still to play, momentum feels within reach.

This Friday, under the lights. In front of our supporters. It's going to be good!

THE OPPOSITION: HARTPURY RFC
Hartpury arrive with confidence of their own. Their four wins from six put them firmly in the league’s top half, with their only defeats coming against established contenders Ealing and Bedford.

A young and ambitious group, Hartpury have excelled in the kicking battle this season, leading the league in kicking metres, allowing them to control territory and play in the right areas of the field. They ask a lot of questions in transition and will undoubtedly provide a well-organised, disciplined challenge.
