Ok i’ve been nagged to report the good win against winchester last weekend! I was so knackered that my memory is a bit patchy but heres my best effort.

Horrible conditions on dingle dell at home. We started off strongly, getting good ball out to the backs and were rewarded with some excellent tries including a couple from from Dickie Duke playing his first game with us. Berger saved the day filling the vacant srcum half position and did a stirling job. Stole lots of ball and generally made a right nusance of himself.

Winchester got their act together much more in the second half and we had to defend against 40 minutes of intense pick and drives and mauls from their forwards. When we did trun ball over we just kicked it aimlessly back at them to attack us all over again!

Bruce Neil was tireless in defence in only his second game with us. Will and Jaco got round the park well (until Jaco got a little twisted ankle and then proceeded to scream in the highest pitch voice i have ever heard…very funny!) But credit goes to jack and tank who battled against a big pack in the scrums and were all over the pitch in defence. Spud got a typical spud style wrap up to tunr the ball over on the very last move a metre or so out to win the game. Well done everyone!

We need to get a W over andover to stand any chance of creeping into the top 4 for the playoffs.

See you all at training
