A hard fought win over a very tricky opposition.

The Lions continued their run of form with a win over a ferocious tackling Westcliffe team.

Braintree had to rely on some big ball carries from the forwards, with a huge shift put in by the front three of James Abraham, Tom Overbury and Nick Smith, with Josh Woodcock coming on at half time and having a big impact at the breakdown, until a nasty head injury forced him off.
Along with some sniping runs from Max Colebrook at scrum half, some clever play from Daniel Starr and Kieran Latham on the wings, and hard tackling from our centres Jake, Cobi and Toby, the team performed well over all.

A mention needs to go to Westcliffe, who although the physically smaller side, threw everything they had at the Braintree attack, and man for man, were more than a match for our back line - they put their bodies on the line (four substitutions are evidence of this!) - it was great to see a team play with such passion.
