Match Report

Well beaten by a faster, fitter, better organised and younger team - yes, they train - who threatened to blow us away after going 14-0 up in 10 minutes. We rallied and conceded no more points that half.

The game was, however, virtually over after they scored again in the first minute of the second half.

We had the occasional good break, but struggled to score as the Nails got back in numbers and we had little support. We turned them over on many occasions in the loose, but were hammered in the penalty count, where the ref seemed to desire release more quickly than even at international level.

Need a very strong team for the next two games, then we have three weeks' rest. So no call offs, please!

Result Lost 43-0 (H/T 14-0)
Leading Lion Richie and Sully were as combative as ever, but let’s give it to Darren on his welcome return.
Cowardly Lion (FTWOO) Overall, a reasonable performance, given the lack of fitness of many. So no award - unless to me (Yosser) for being too cowardly to give the award!
