Chinnor 2nd XV 39
vs. Windsor 2nd XV 0
Saturday 25th March 2006
League
Chinnor 2nd s beat
Windsor 2nd s 39 points to nil, making it the 11th
clean sheet they have had this season and bringing the points tally to 580
with only 77 against.
Once again Chinnor fielded 9 under
20s with Dan Cuadrado and Pete Nayler making the team for the first time and
more than holding their own.
This was a very physical game and
Chinnor forwards dominated the scrums and mauls. The first points came in
the 5thminute when Nick Grimsdell outpaced Windsor and scored
under the posts, and well converted by Adam White. The next 30 minutes
proved to be a bit of a stalemate with both teams attaching and defending
well. In the last 2 minutes of the first half Simon Matthews broke around
the base of the scrum and forced his way over the line, Chinnor finished the
first half 12 points to nil up.
Early in the second half Adam White
kicked a penalty. Five minutes later Ali Reekie broke from his own half and
ran straight through Windsor and scored. Gareth Hook followed shortly
afterwards with a try due to some good forward rucking and driving. Chinnor
led 25 points to nil.
The following 20 minutes provided
defensive play from both teams and nobody seemed able to break the deadlock.
That changed with some inspirational play from Ali Reekie who got through
the defence to score and the try was converted again by Adam White and
Chinnor’s lead increased to 32 points to Nil.
In the last few minutes of the game
Jon Brooks scored after some great forward work and Adam White converted
with Chinnor ending the game 39 points to nil.
Ali Reekie was named man of the
match
Scorers:
Tries: Garth Hook, Simon Matthews, Jon Brooks, Nick Grimsdell,
