Weston Super Mare 2nd XV 13 vs. Chinnor

Saturday 8th September 2007
Friendly Game
Chinnor seconds visited Weston Super Mare and came away with a very good
win, by beating their 2nd team by 36 points to 13 in a friendly.
Chinnor went down to Weston with one player on the bench. They had to lose
one of their boys to the first team due one their players pulling out. All
fifteen players had great games but there were also some outstanding
performances by the forwards Rixon, Goddard, Millburn with Stock,
Winchester, Iles, Scholtz on his debut, and the team was well lead by
captain Fenwick who was not far behind. The backs excelled with Duder and
Burns closely followed by Grimsdell, White, Hackshaw, Davies, and Tom Iles
who played out of position.
Weston
was first to put points on the board with a penalty that was offset 2
minutes later by White. It took until the 20th minute for Chinnor
to add more points with a well worked try by Millburn converted by White.
This did not last long with Weston converting a try of their own and the
points were level 10 points each. Then the boys then stepped up a notch with
some class rugby between forwards and backs leading to a try by Capt Fenwick
then one by Grimsdell converted by White and the first half finished 22
points to 10.
Sadly
Chinnor lost Iles with a hamstring injury early in the second half.
This
resulted in Chinnor playing the rest of the match with 14 players. Scholtz
No 8 moved to centre to fill the gap and the forwards played the rest of the
game with 7 men. Watching the game one would never have known it, they were
so disciplined with everyone giving their all.
Ian
Stock was the next one to score after some great interpassing between backs
and forwards again working as a unit. Weston added to their point tally with
another penalty. Captain Marvel then broke out of a tackle and sprinted 50
meters passing to Adam Seymour for another try with Adam White adding the
extra 2 points. Chinnor finished the game 36 points to 13.
The
ref thanked the Chinnor team for making it one of the best games that he had
officiated at and remarked on the discipline they showed for the full game.
