Rob Powell’s men make the short trip to face Esher in Round 4 of National League 1, kicking off at 3pm.

Richmond will be looking to get four wins out of four after strong wins against Blackheath, Rosslyn Park and Darlington Mowden Park in the opening three rounds.

For those unable to make the game, coverage will be provided on X (formerly known as Twitter) RichmondFC1861.

There have been six changes from the side that put 48 points on Darlington Mowden Park in Round 3. In the front row, Will Goffey makes his first start for the club starting at hooker. In the back row, Toby Saysell returns at openside flanker and so does Sam Pim who starts at No.8 pushing Lucas Schmid to blindside flanker after a player of the match performance last weekend.

In the back line, Frank McMillan makes his first start for the club on the right wing after securing a brace last week against DMP. On the bench, Mattias Woollard comes in to cover the second row and Sam Smith covers the wings.
