New Year , same result - OLs do enough to beat Leamington RFC for the second time this season . On a freezing cold day at the crofts OLs and Leamington produced a scrappy first half as the boys ran Christmas out of their systems but cold hands gave way to handling errors on both sides . The OLs pack produced plenty of ball but the backs wasted several opportunities to score and it was not until mid-way through the first half that a charge down from Brenan Lumby allowed Nathan Chant to score under the posts , Will Davies converts , 7-0 . There was to be no further scoring in the first half .
Leamington rallied and if not for a resolute OLs defence would have scored early on in the second half . However , with that opportunity gone , OLs claimed two further tries . The first , a fine individual effort from Will Davies and the second from Jake Pettifer which Will Davies also had a part in with a fine 'Gary Owen' . The final score ended up OLs 17 and Leamington 0 . Not the best spectacle but a wins a win and this team just don't know how to lose .
