Bracknell suffered a second National Three South West defeat of the season when they were hammered 27-3 by local rivals Redingensians Rams last Saturday, but Greenslade-Jones has promised his side will be up for the challenge of their high-flying Devonian visitors.

He vowed: “We have got to regroup and rugby is a brilliant game because we can go out and right the wrongs.

“We’ve had two quite disappointing results but we’ve got to put our bodies on the line and come out all guns blazing.

“They will have a long bus journey and they might look at the table and think we’re just a mid-table team.

“We need to really take it to them, use their journey to our advantage and keep hold of the ball.

“We need to get some continuity going and some points on the board.” And he urged his team’s supporters to help his side preserve their 100% home record by turning out in force for Saturday’s key contest.

He said: “We are unbeaten at Lily Hill Park and it’s up to us to catch them out.

“It would be great to have as many people as we can come down and support the boys as we try and get our campaign back on track.” Reflecting on the defeat to Redingensians, Greenslade-Jones admitted his side’s discipline was not as good as it should have been, despite the performance of referee Sara Cox irking some Bracknell fans.

He confessed: “The scoreline didn’t reflect the game but we didn’t do ourselves any favours.

“We conceded 25 penalties, a couple of yellow cards and a penalty try. It was a difficult day at the office but we have got to take it on the chin and bounce back and put in a performance this weekend.

“You can always question the referee but we gave up a lot of technical offences.

“I thought the penalty try was very harsh but we have to live with it, although it changed the momentum of the match.

“What we didn’t do was play to the referee which we all spoke about before the game.” In a tight opening to the contest - which took place at Reading Rugby Club due to the ongoing renovation of Rams’ clubhouse - Bracknell started lively enough with full back Stuart MacKay bundled into touch just short of the home side’s line in the opening minute.

And from the ensuing play and the game’s first scrum, the Rams front-row were penalised for boring in.

Unfortunately for the visitors, wing George Owen let his former Rams teammates off the hook by sending his kick wide of the uprights.

Owen did, however, make amends in the 12th minute when centre Dave Massey, making a sound return to the Rams line-up having missed the previous Saturday, was penalised for preventing release at a ruck and Owen deftly slotted his kick to put his side 3-0 up.

As it turned out it was the only points the visitors were going to go away with as, almost immediately, Rams picked up a penalty at the other end when the visitors backs were caught offside and scrum half James Brooks thumped over a powerful 40 metre effort to level the score.

And Brooks was at it again just four minutes later when, this time, the visitors were penalised for not releasing and he sent another 40 plus metre effort sailing magnificently over from wide right.

And the game took a turn for the worse for Bracknell in the 24th minute, when replacement second row Kim Plant was sent to the sin bin, and less than a minute later Ken Dowding joined him to leave the hosts’ with a two man numerical advantage.

However, despite the Rams upping their game in an attempt to capitalise, they failed to make any inroads and were unable to cross the line while Bracknell had players off the field.

Yet almost as soon as the visitors had their full complement back on the park, Redingenisans were awarded a penalty try - with the referee deeming Bracknell had deliberatley collapsed a defensive scrum near their own line.

Brooks knocked over the straightforward conversion to put his side 13-3 ahead, and they extended that lead with another score in the final play of the first half.

Rams’ hooker Ben Henderson, prop James Baker and captain Andy Amor all drove powerfully before Massey picked up a loose ball to send full back Joe Duffellen screaming in under the posts.

With Brooks again converting, Rams took a 20-3 lead into the break.

The hosts have consistently put on a deluge of second half points in their opening three games, but Bracknell fought bravely and restricted their opponents to just one score.

That came after a huge crossfield kick from wing Olly Foxley put Bracknell under pressure and they coughed up the ball.

No. 8 Gus Davies’ charge was held up on the Bracknell five metre line and Rams won a scrum, and this time Davies made no mistake, driving off the back of the set-piece, to smash his way over and bring out another smart conversion from Brooks.

The same player could have secured a bonus point for the Rams shortly after, but he was held up over the line.
