Match report, full match and the 10 tries – Now Online


After last weeks derby defeat to Stewartry, Annan have another tough match against 3rd placed Cumnock on Saturday at Violetbank

Cumnock are still with a chance, albeit small, to finish in the play off spot for promotion.

The teams met earlier on in the season where the Ayrshire side won convincely on their artificial home pitch. On Saturday a heavy Violetbank pitch will be a different prospect with both teams needing to win the match for different reasons. Cumnock to keep up their 2nd spot ambitions and Annan to most likely secure West 1 rugby for next season.

Coach Gogs will be hoping that he can put out his strongest team but with the 6 Nations starting on Saturday a few players will most likely be unavailable.

For Annan it’s been a difficult set of recent fixtures and after this weekend, they travel to West 1 favourites Garnock in a couple of weeks.

A big Annan support would be most appreciated as always. The England v Scotland match will be on at the clubhouse afterwards.

Kick off: 2pm

Starting XV: 1 Ryan Glass 2 Callum Bell 3 Kieran Warrick 4 Frazer Hope 5 Kieron Watret 6 Willie Gray 7 Callum Smith 8 Sean Haren 9 Fraser McMillan 10 Josh Whiteside 11 James Kirby 12 Alex Halliday 13 Aaron Carmichael 14 James Kirby 15 Andrew Jancey (Capt)
