An historic day as we head east to Blackheath.
The club was founded in 1858 and is the oldest open rugby club in continuous existence in the world.
The club also assisted in organising the world's first rugby international (between England and Scotland in Edinburgh on 27 March 1871) and hosted the first international between England and Wales ten years later
Blackheath is recognised as being a founder member of what we now know to be the Rugby Football Union.

A changed side from last week as DoR Stean Williams brings club stalwart Josh Lloyd onto the bench, and we see a welcome return for Ezra Caven.
Pat Zindi starts and Harry Hone is back.

Come on you Dings!!
