The first match was against Portico was full of end to end action. Rafa Van Osselaer, Joe Wilcock, and Luke Johnson tearing up the wings setting the scene not just for this match but the other two.

Again it was great to see the team organising themselves, Finley Bacon and Sepp Karnik looking for gaps in our defensive line on the reload. Dummy half duties with rotated with Reuben Swan Buchan and Otto Zorn in particularl giving clear commands.

Despite the heat the team remained focus so much so that in the last set they gave not a single inch. Defensively the support the squad give one another is brilliant to watch.

This was Finley Bacon's last match and the skills he has demonstrated since the start of the season will be truly missed.

Our thanks go to Wigan Bulldogs for making it such a memorable and fun day, and we hope to invite them back to Chester for a return fixture soon.
