OSKAR Hirskyj-Douglas is set to make his first start of the season as Henley Hawks travel to Loughborough Students in National League 1 tomorrow.

After suffering a shoulder injury in pre-season and then playing for England Under 20s Sevens in Kenya, Hirskyj-Douglas has yet to feature.

But last season’s supporters' player of the year has been named as blind-side flanker for the trip to Leicestershire.

He is one of four changes from the victory over Wharfedale.

Captain Dave Clements and Dave Manning (both injured) are replaced by Jake Albon and Ant Brennan, while in the backs Jamie Davies is handed a start on the wing.

No 8 Joe Rowles and winger James Monks return to the starting XV as Witney host Towcestrians at Hailey Road in South West 1 East.

But they will be without fly half Henry Lamb, who is unavailable.

Pete Boulton returns to the front row for Oxford Harlequins’ trip to Reading.

The prop has been sidelined with a deep gash to his knee since the opening weekend of the season.

Luke Brown steps in at lock for the injured Allan Purchase (back), while Charlie Ward returns at flanker.

In the backs, Noel O’Brian and Huw Dimond come in, Jack Robinson switches to full back and Lewis Etheridge starts on the wing.

Grove welcome Swindon to Cane Lane, hoping to end a three-match winless run.

They are without the banned Cash Chilvers, but Joe Bellinger makes his first start, while Guy Nicholl and Nick Sevier return.

Richard Keen comes into the squad after impressing for the second XV.

In National League 2 South, Chinnor go to Redruth in search of their first win of the season.
