Match Report

Result: 8-15 L

Another hard-fought match against Ranby saw a bruising encounter on Wednesday afternoon. We started a little sluggishly and ceded territory and possession rather too easily. Having said that, Ranby were probably the most swift team in attack and in tagging that we have played this term. After the first quarter of the game we started to wake up and scored a couple of tries courtesy of some weaving runs by Albie C and Freddie H. Our defending still needed some improvement as we tended to drop back rather too quickly. Unfortunately, Otto L was involved in an accidental, but full-on, clash of heads towards the end of the second quarter and had to leave the field. One key player down, the boys dug deep and rallied in the second half of the game, putting together some decent passes which culminated in more frequent runs over the tryline. Well played boys, and we hope for a speedy recovery to Otto!
