This will be the toughest test that the Black & Ambers have faced all season as they come up against the fully professional unbeaten Falcons who are currently running away with the English Championship league. Interestingly the same thing happened a few seasons ago when the unbeaten Exeter Chiefs came to Rodney Parade and went away second best. Newport welcome back popular centre Adam Davies who has been out injured since the beginning of September. Injuries and the fact that outstanding prop Alex Jeffries is not allowed to play due to his age of only 1yrs means a number of changes for the home side. Newport, even without Jeffries still field 4 youngsters - 1yr old Ollie Griffiths and 1yr olds Lance Randall, Dominic Franchi and Ashton Hewitt. Tight-head prop Dan Mathews who recently signed from Pontypool makes his debut. Mike Dams Office +44 (0) info@sportstat.co.uk Compiled by Mike Dams (0/1/01 09:5) P1
