The Second festival of the year.

This proved to a festival of HIGH STANDARD, with a few teams fielding ex A players from last year in their teams.

FIRST GAME.

Richmond 26- Weybridge 0

This was a very hard first game up against a strong Richmond side , with a few very large U11 boys, the boys went to sleep in this first half of the game , and left lapse in defence, poor tackling, let Richmond take a commanding, lead 20-0 at half time, The second half was a vast improvement, by all the BOYS, Richmond scored a dubious try in the second half with their own touch judged needing glasses, but wasn't wearing, them.

Coupled with the REF SPOILING THE GREAT NEW LINE OUT MOVE, WHICH WOULDFD HAVE SEEN JAMES THROUGH TO SCORE ONLY TO STOPPED, BY THE REF.

The highlights of the game were strong runs in the second half by ROWAN/RYAN/RU, spirited rear guard action by James, and GREAT OFF LOADS by ISAAC, during the whole game according to the RICHMOND COACH.

Guilfordians 14- Weybridge 0
First Half was dominated by Guilfordians who were throwing the ball around the park, with several luck bounces passes, allowed them to get the overlap, but more than better performance, in the tackling department, by the front 5 of THOMAS/RU/LUKE/LEWIS/TOBY, GOT GUILFORDIANS, struggling, coupled with great runs by the half backs/ and backs of RYAN/ ISAAC/ROWAN, nearly breaching the line.

A MUCH BETTER PERFORMANCE.

Wimbeldon15 Weybridge 7

This game was clearly the BEST OF THE DAY, but for a number of crucial decisions and missed calls by the ref we could have won, namely high tackles /hands in the ruck/7 of them, a deliberate trip on ISAAC, which then eventually resulted in a turnover and as consequence a try for Wimbeldon, A quick tap and go penalty by Isaac, who broke through only to be stopped by the ref, the WHOLE TEAM THEN RAISED THE BAR AND THE INTENSITY TO THE TACKLING ROSE 90%, and as a result Wimbeldon conceed a well desrved penalty just on our 10M line with another quick thinking by Isaac, saw him tap and go down the line cutting in and scoring with no call back from the ref the try stood.

In Summary the day can be described as started bad got better , and but for a few very bad calls , WHICH WE WILL CALL BRYCE LAWRENCE, could have ended better.

The boys are improving with each game, only a small area now needs work, NONE the less the BOYS SHOWED TRUE TEAM SPIRIT.
