A great performance full of desire & commitment .

Anselmians: 50
Oswestry: 5

Conceding the first try has seen us lose our shape and confidence in the past but today was different, maybe the two impressive wins the boys had for the College the day before gave them the drive to show Oswestry how Anselmians play rugby and young Malkin scored in response through some superb forwards play.

Beautiful footwork from Alex W, Joe CJ and Sam J saw them dance around the Oswestry defence and Archie who was a machine putting fear in the eyes of the opposition, scored, could have made it 2, just remember to dive over the line, but enough to earn him the MOM award . 3 tries from Joe, hat trick hero who had a fine game in the center .
The 2nd and final 3rd saw some of the best support play we have had this season with players backing each other on every run. This lead to a couple of tries and a few close opportunities.

Jonny L played his first game on the wing and good effort making those tackles, even though some slipped through your grasp. You’ll get em next time.
Another fine performance from captain Josh who never fails to lead by example .

Todays game, as usual, pinned a few areas we need to improve on and practice in training such as being able to pass out of the tackle and and under pressure more efficiently, looking for the overlaps that have formed in the oppositions defence. Too many players are still tackling high which is causing us to lose ground and concede penalties in dangerous areas and positioning and numbers in the ruck is something we will need to focus on in training as well.
