Old Brentwoods 1st XV-v- Ravens |
| Essex 2 |
| Old Brentwoods 127 Ravens 0 |
| |
| The Old Boys followed on from their impressive 31-5 win over
Billericay the previous week with this emphatic league victory.
|
| They got off to a great start with Dean Bourne going over for a try
from the kickoff. He followed up with two more in the next five minutes and
from there on the visitors never got back into the game.
|
| To their credit the Ravens pack competed very well in the set play
throughout the game, never giving an inch in the scrum. However they
were never any threat in the loose where their tackling and support were
found wanting time and time again.
|
| The scoreline summed up the pattern of the game with Bourne going over
for seven tries in total and Tom Williams, Andy West, Neil Hannaway and Paul
Sier each going over for three.
|
| Hopefully the Old Boys can use this as a springboard for next week's
game against May and Baker which is sure to be a much tougher
proposition.
