Barnstaple Preview

The Titans return to Summerfield Stadium this Saturday for back-to-back home fixtures, looking to build momentum after last weekend’s much-needed win against Hinckley. That performance showed greater control, sharper execution, and plenty of spirit — and the squad will be aiming to back it up with another strong display in front of their supporters.

This week’s opponents, Barnstaple RFC, have also made a promising start to their campaign. They underlined their quality last weekend with a home victory over Hornets, a result that will give them plenty of confidence heading into Saturday’s West Country clash.

Recent meetings between the two sides have always carried plenty of bite and intensity, with local pride adding an extra edge. Supporters can expect another fiercely contested 80 minutes as both teams look to keep their early-season momentum going.

For Taunton, the challenge will be to build on the foundations laid last weekend — tightening up discipline, making the most of attacking opportunities, and showing the consistency needed to string results together. Back-to-back wins at Summerfield Stadium would be the perfect springboard for the season ahead.
