Covents 2nds 26 - 0 Spartans 3rds (Warks 3)

Sometimes scrappy, sometimes good phases of play. The referees first game as ref, not too bad, tried to keep the game flowing, missed a bit, both sides tried to get away with stuff, kept a lid on a couple of flurries. Back to the game, Steve Vallis uncomfortable (due to a humdinger of a hangover)in the scrum against a (novice?) prop; dispensed with said props services halfway through 2nd half, Big Sam Collinson ran the 1st try in from a good distance, Ben slotted over. Rohan (who felt a bit guilty) turned up and came on at half time ran 2 tries in and then went off, to pack his speedos ready for his trip back to the homeland. Ben slotted 1 of the 2 over.

Rohans departure brought on to the pitch young John (Joff) who it is fair to say after all his previous games, has got a bit of bottle, chased a kick up field kicked on again and scored his First try for the club;nice one. Ben slotted over. I know it is short but my dinner is nearly ready. The No8 would like to point out that a masterclass in, the one handed pass behind the back, the positional kick up field, and the amazing show and go dummy can be seen at training on Thursday.

My thanks to the venerable and distinguished gentleman Dicky P who has just created a new "Guest Report" slot. Well done to Joff to.
