After a long summer, we were all excited for our first match of the season at home vs corsairs on the first pitch. We started really strong with a quick try from Wilton which was nicely converted. Unfortunately I got injured at the start of the game and was gutted to have to sit the rest of it out but Danny did a great job stepping up as captain. We kept up the momentum and Caiden scored another great try also converted. After a great drive up the pitch from the forwards and some nice passing from the backs Wilton was in for another try putting us up 19-7 at half time.
In the second half, despite Corsairs bringing on a full 15 leaving us a man down we still managed to put another 7 points on the scoreboard after Matthew's try. Unfortunately after putting fresh legs on the pitch, Corsairs managed to come back and win 33-26. However the final score doesn’t display all of the great things we were doing and we put on an excellent performance considering we were a man down for half the game.
