Can anyone stop the Bennies?

Wasps will be keeping a close eye on the St Benedict's stormers.

The Ealing school, running away with the Standard Super 1st XV league this year, have already supplied a number of young academy players over the past few years, including star prospects Hugo Ellis and Joe Simpson.

Now Hugo's brother Arthur, selected for England U18s, and Joe's brother Michael are helping Bennies in their quest to become national champions.

They meet Filton College in the quarter finals next month and warmed up with an astonishing 60-0 drubbing of Hampton. In the Standard league, they have won all 18 games, scoring a mighty 883 points.

Tiffin have put in some gutsy performances and defeated John Fisher 23-14 as they complete a respectable season.
