Men of the Match – Angus E and Hamish O’R
The boys played superbly well against a vigorous and tough Smallwood side. They had some robust and direct runners who carried the ball well. However, Hamish O’R scored early after pouncing on one quickly recycled ball. He scored another try before half time thanks to some great tackling and lots of turned over ball. After half time things got tough as Cian B had to go off as did Toby C. Nevertheless, the boys fought bravely and forced another try. We had improved in most areas with better rucking and quicker movement of the ball out to the wings. What won us the match , though, was heart and passion! James L, Toby C, Tom C are all worth a mention. James L made some blistering tackles and ran well with the ball and Toby C ensured continuity. Tom C played well above his weight!
Well done to everyone but we must work on running straight lines, rucking and re-aligning between phases.
