All their wins have come at home, although last week they did come close to beating London Scottish away. Jersey outscored Scottish five tries to four but lost 41-33.

Before last week, scoring tries had been a problem for Jersey, with only Moseley having scored fewer.

Jersey also have the joint leakiest defence, in terms of tries conceded, alongside Doncaster and London Scottish.

The Channel Island side have strengthened their squad in the past month.

Mark Foster and Charlie Walker-Blair have arrived from Exeter, Mark McCrea from Irish side Connacht and this week Tongan hooker Elvis Taione received his clearance to play for Jersey. He could make his debut tomorrow.
