BACK TO BUSINESS FOR NEW ENGLAND RUGBY

Rugby union returns to the New England region tomorrow, with the students to battle one another in the first round.

St Alberts College will be hoping to impress against Robb, with the green-and-reds hosting their ‘Parents Day’ at Belle Vue.

While the Armidale Blues begin their premiership defence on home soil against an improving Elks outfit.

The match was switched to Moran Oval instead of the Glen Innes Showground, after a clash with the Rally New England Event.

The Barbarians will have the opening week bye.
