Match Report: 

The match against Welbeck DSFC was always going to be difficult. Missing some key players and a mounting injury list we travelled with only 19 fit players; some of which were carrying slight niggles. Still, the team started sprightly and aggressively. However, missed tackles and turnover ball was to be the curse of our game with this proving to be our on-going problem throughout the match. The opposition were too strong and high quality, set piece plays with the ability to keep the ball alive being their strong points.  All in all many rugby lessons were learnt today and there will be some honest truths discussed in training this coming week.
