East Kilbride up next for county’s rugby players

Darren McLean on his way to scoring the second of his two tries last Saturday against Livingston.

Seventh is due to welcome fifth in the BT National League Division 3 as East Kilbride and Orkney are set to go head-to-head on Saturday afternoon.

A comprehensive and ultimately comfortable 46-5 victory against Livingston last weekend propelled Orkney into fifth place, three points above Perthshire, but, with the islanders holding three games in hand over fourth-placed Haddington, they will be hopeful that a positive result could keep their slim hopes of a fourth-place finish alive.

East Kilbride beat Berwick last weekend and will be hoping to avenge the 27-20 defeat they suffered at the Pickaquoy in November.

The match is scheduled to kick off at noon.
