1st XV ... victory 'getting near'!

Only two points in it

Sunday, 29 January 2012By Roger Holmes

The 1st XV came agonisingly close at Mossley Hill, going down 5-3 in an extremely tight game that belied the respective teams league status.

A tremendous defensive effort from all the players kept Mossley at bay for large proportions of the game. But there was just a lack of a clinical cutting edge to unlock the home defence.

A crestfallen team can be proud of the performance and in the way they are at last putting into practice some of the coaching and training drills.
