11a match report

After our great win last weekend we were nervous about our game against Wetpups as they have always been strong opposition. Due to the wet conditions the ball was very slippery and we made a number of handling errors in the beginning which Wetpups took advantage of and scored and converted. After that we got our heads back into the game and kept the ball in hand and got over their try line 3 times however no try was awarded.  Eventually our persistence paid off and Cameron Drummond-Hay managed to score which Oliver Finley converted. Half time score 7 all. In the second half Wetpups managed to score again but did not convert. Some good rucking and forward play resulted in Andrew Good scoring which Oliver again converted. We were now in the lead with just seconds on the clock. Wetpups kicked off and we were unable to keep possession, we defended bravely but were penalized and Wetpups went on to score the final try and converted wining the game 19/14.
