Counties 1 ADM Lancashire and Cheshire: Bolton v Aspull, Didsbury Toc H v Aldwinians, Leigh v Warrington, Liverpool St Helens v West Park, Tarleton v Southport, Widnes v Sefton
Counties 2 ADM Lancashire and Cheshire: Eccles v De La Salle, Littleborough v Oldham, Liverpool Collegiate v Orrell, Ormskirk v Fleetwood, Trafford MV v Heaton Moor, Wigan v Tyldesley

In light of the 1st XV’s game away at Colne & Nelson being cancelled due to unfit pitches, ORUFC’s only senior game of the weekend was the 2nd XV’s home fixture facing Carrington for the 2nd time this season after an away loss earlier in this year’s league campaign.
Following the defeats to Manchester United in the derby and Bodo Glimt in the Champions League, Manchester City were in desperate need of a good bounce back game to get the momentum going again.
