As a rule, men's rugby doesn't receive much coverage on this blog - on the not unreasonable grounds that it gets huge coverage elsewhere and can more than look after itself. However, I'll make an exception this weekend... because the men's county rugby team are one step away from their first ever County Championship Final!
After two astonishing, unprecedented, away wins in Cornwall and Kent, Hertfordshire are just one home win from the Twickenham final (against either Lancashire or Cheshire) - and in the county's 75th anniversary year as well.
Admittedly their opponents are Gloucestershire - attempting to reach their 34th final - but Herts' performances have been far better than Gloucs. so far - and with home advantage and (hopefully) a big crowd behind them anything is possible.
The game kicks off at 3pm on Saturday at OAs - with the women's and girls' season now at an end, why not go along and cheer them on?
Results so far...
7th May:
Cornwall 18 , Hertfordshire 25
Gloucestershire 33, Kent 26
14th May
Gloucestershire 44, Cornwall 23
Kent 7, Hertfordshire 48
