Jed were only on the park 7 minutes and were down by 12 points after Hills winger Leslie then centre Holland went over for tries Butler converting one of the scores. Jed replied with a try by Gregor Young after 17 minutes converted by Chisholm. Hills replied immediately with a try from hooker Macmillan after 20 minutes. Jed went on to pressurise the home line and were judged to be held up after twice crossing the line, as well as this Jed had a couple of scoring opportunities stopped after passes were deemed forward, however Chisholm managed to convert a penalty to take the half time score to 17 – 10.



The second half came to life after 15 minutes play when first Hills scored a converted try this was quickly followed by a try for Gregor Young, Hills again replied immediately with a try, again this was quickly followed by the visitors when Gregor Young scored his third try. Jed started to chase the game looking for a bonus point but were unable to capitalise on any pressure, Hills had the final score when scrum half Macpherson scored an opportunist try in the final minutes to make the final score 39 – 22.

The players were disappointed to come away from the game with nothing to show for their efforts, we let in two easy scores in the first ten minutes and we should have been able to defend better after we had scored tries in the second half, there were positives in the way we played at times and hopefully we can take this improvement into the next few games.

Next week we have a pre match lunch for ex players and guests which is well supported, then we don't have a home game for 7 weeks so hopefully we have a good crowd to cheer the team against the league leaders Watsonians.
