29 - 22 (W)
It was an excellent morning of rugby, played in good conditions in our fantastic new kit, against a well drilled opposition who played the game in the right spirit
After our setback in Weston a few weeks ago it was great to see the boys taking onboard the learnings and bouncing straight back. From the moment they arrived it was clear they were ready and βup for itβ and it set the tone for the whole morning
Thatβs not to say it was all plain sailing. Gordano quickly took a 10 point lead, however the boys didnβt let their heads drop and fought back with some excellent tackling from Noah and Harley and good tries scored by Isaac M and Rupert
The second half was also a tense affair with momentum swings throughout the half. Two Gordano tries were answered with a good try from Alfie D (capping off an excellent game) and a powerful run and score for Leon. Following strong defensive work from Ewan and some good kicking from Isaac M and Dan B, the scores were still level with 5 minutes remaining
With everything set up for a grandstand finish, following a sustained period of pressure we were able to find the breakthrough we needed with another powerful run and excellent try scored by Rupert
Player of the match for an all-round excellent performance and huge impact on the final outcome was Thomas
There were a lot of things that we did well today an some areas for improvement, but with the commitment and intensity that the boys demonstrated weβve got no doubt that weβll continue to move forwards in a positive direction
Well done boys
Finally, a huge thank you to the sponsors of our new kit, Arthur E. Davey Funeral Directors and DAY-LEC Electrical Services
