Comfortable win, lots of promise but its going to get a lot harder

The game started very wet, poor handling, slips and falls and knock on's galore. 5 mins gone and down 10 nil and looking like we were going to get beaten.

The team settled and a calmness and togetherness came about the play.

The first half improved with us scoring 4 tries through Ben Walton, Callum Rafrafi and then two from Craig Shepherd. Half time 26:10

We continued where we left off and the tries continued too. Good discipline, good attitude and the great play resulted in 9 further tries in the second half. The sequence was Callum Rafrafi for his second, Craig Shep for his hatrick, Andy T under the posts, Ben Walton running full length for his second, then a brace from Sando who backed his pace on the wing, Josh breaking through, Carig Shep for his fourth and then Joe Evans to finish it off. All in all 13 tries and 8 conversions.

Northern played right to the end and got a last minute try deserved for their commitment.

Final score 81:17
