The outstanding open-side flanker has featured in a National Colts Cup final and later secured two promotions since first arriving at Old Bath Road as a four-year-old, going on to rack up 60 senior tries in a storied 20-plus years career at the club.

Vooght is part of a back row featuring one change from last Saturday’s disappointing defeat at Sedgley Park, young dynamo Harry Stone stepping into the blind-side role as James McRae continues at No. 8.

The remainder of the pack remains unchanged as props Paddy Harris – continuing his run of featuring in every game this season – and Nick Barry are sandwiched by influential captain Max Hayman, the skipper with 12 tries to his name this season.

Nile Dacres and Dan Swain, man-of-the-match in a sensational performance in the earlier fixture between the two sides, remain together in the second row.

Ollie Hodgson slots back in at scrum-half for his second start following an encouraging display at Birmingham Moseley, the second of the side’s seasonal ever-presents, Fraser Honey, again in the stand-off position.

The centre partnership of Joe Pannese and Axel Kalling-Smith, the past fortnight’s outstanding performer who played a part in all four tries at Tigers, remains unaltered, but there are changes on both wings.

On the right, Jamaica Sevens speedster Jack Rampton comes back in after an eye-catching display for the Development XV against the Army, while ex-Newbury man Oli Rhoads – who has two tries in three substitute appearance – earns a maiden start.

Zach Clow completes the side at full-back, the leading try-scorer with 13 the third to feature in all 22 games this term.

Powerful Bath prop Scott Kirk and the legendary James Baker are joined on the bench by fellow forwards Ben Atkins and Morgan MacRae, while versatile ex-Millfield School Nat Arnold covers the three-quarters as he becomes the 41st player to represent the first team in 2024/25.

Prop Ryan Lomas and back row Mikey Duda head to Well Hall as travelling reserves.
