A fantastic morning of rugby in the October sunshine!
Datchworth arrived one player short and Monty generously agreed to start for the Greens and was soon joined by Sam W when the Datchworth captain left the field due to injury. Stortford quickly established dominance in scrums and rucks and the tries to started flowing from Joe L, Odin, Ed J, Freddie O, Cuan and Dylan. Conversions from Paidraig and Tom N provided a score somewhat un-reflective of the competitiveness of our visitors, however teamwork and effort from the Stortford boys really shone through today.
Odin, guesting for Datchworth, was unlucky to have a score wiped out for a foot in touch following a lung busting run on down the right wing, however Datchworth did manage two late converted tries.
It was great to see the hard work from training paying off, with plays and techniques developed in recent sessions put into action and delivering rewards. Odin was nominated player of the match by the opposition and thank you to Dylan for speaking on behalf of the team to thank Datchworth and nominate their player of the match. A good morning out for the boys and they showed what they are all capable of when they give 100%.
