Jordan Onojaife While the Blues did not have a league game last week due to London Welsh’s departure from the Championship, Bedford were in action as they took on Northampton Saints in an enthralling encounter at Goldington Road.

Despite losing 52-17, here were plenty of positives for the Blues to take into this weekend’s fixture.

The reverse fixture in November ended in a 13-10 loss for Mike Rayer’s men despite them dominating large portions of the game and the Blues will be hoping not to let the same happen again this time around.

Changes from the win over Nottingham a fortnight ago see Michael Le Bourgeois returning to captain the team at centre with Pat Tapley and Myles Dorrian also starting in the backs while Jordan Onojaife and Jason Hill come into the forwards
