Invicta Dynamos and the Cardiff Dragons, joint early pacesetters in the ENIHL South Division 1, clash at the Gillingham Ice Bowl on Sunday (5.15pm).

Dynamos moved level on points with the Dragons – and have a match in hand – after their impressive win double last weekend over the Wightlink Raiders and Streatham Redskins.

The 8-4 success on the Isle of Wight, where Nicky Lewis scored a hat-trick, was Invicta’s best performance of the season so far but they topped it just 24 hours later by sweeping the Redskins aside 13-2 at home with trebles from Lewis and Peter Vaisanen.

Dynamos coach Kevin Parrish (pictured) said: "I wasn’t happy with our display (the week before) against Bracknell but in the two games last weekend, the players set a standard of performance which I will now be expecting them to reproduce for the rest of the season.

"And we will need to do that against Cardiff because they are a tough team.

"They beat us 7-4 at our place last season and that hurt as we are not used to getting beaten at home."

Parrish felt one of the reasons for the poor display against Bracknell was that his side were not strong enough physically and he has moved to resolve that problem by making two additions to his squad.

Forward Anthony Leone, who scored 58 goals in his three previous seasons for Invicta, has re-signed after leaving during the summer and Parrish has also added Lloyd Fuller, a 26-year-old locally produced player, to his roster.

"When it comes to the physical side, Anthony is like a train," Parrish added. "Lloyd is also strong even though he has only been playing the game for four years."
