Dinner in the classroom of the bard.


Ouch, that hurt. A loss that we did not need. Deja vu, 2 years ago on the very same field we played a very poor first half, came back in the second, but lost. Down 14-0 after two silly costly errors in the first ten minutes it was going to be difficult to come back, and we didn't. The half time score of 26 - 5, although not a true reflection of our play ensured that if we were to turn thing around we would have to have a cracker of a second half. With both coaches pulling their hair out and one about to do a 'hat dance' the second half saw a very different and more focused team take to the field. Winning the second half 19 - 6 allayed some of the angst but it was not enough to redress the poor play early on. The final minutes were tense with TGS clawing back into the game, unfortunately too little to late and the game was lost 33 - 24. A game we could have won, should have won but did not. A number of players played excellent games with all the tries being scored by our backs. Josh claimed our first try and Callum, Chris and Man of the Match, Lucas Brown scoring the others. Sat converted 2 of the 4 tries.
Dinner afterwards in the room purported to be the one Shakespeare studied was a certain tour highlight.
