Match Report by Richard Williams

Mmmm.....well, we are still unbeaten and some of the defence today was Exceptional.....our attacking play however proved hugely frustrating with over 15 turnovers and 5 dropped balls in one game alone...... That said, as a team, we are on the right track !

Tyndale and Selby both gave us tough games.

First up was Tyndale and a battle royal commenced especially up front with no quarter given, if we could only hold onto the ball in the ruck the final score would have been more reflective of the Crocs dominance......a final score in a scrappy game of Crocs 5 Tyndale 0 tells its own story with Ella being our saviour.

Up next were Selby and if we were hoping our first game had got the mistakes out of our system we were sadly mistaken......it took Selby only 5 minutes to go into the lead through a turnover in the Crocs 25 with a converted try…......Our recovery took 20 minutes before Adahoa finally crossed from some good forward play and Oyin converted. Sophia was up next on 30 minutes again from forward domination close to the line and after some 6 sets of trying. The game was closed out by Chelsea on 35 minutes after battling the last 10 metres in determined fashion......final score Crocs 17- Selby 7 A frustrating and somewhat ugly day, but a win is a win and we continue with our unbeaten run.

When this team clicks i would hate to be the opposition because that will be a day to savour !!!
