Sandbach failed to get back to winning ways this Saturday when they went down 24-7 to a resurgent Vale of Lune side who have gone from strength to strength throughout the season.
Two mistakes by the Bradwall Road side were punished harshly with two converted tries which meant the home side went in 14-0 down at half time. Sandbach's defence continued to hold strong, however they failed to make their possession count until midway through the second half when Will Stockdale crashed over for his fifth try of the season, converted by Will Cargill.
Vale of Lune responded with a penalty and another converted try. Sandbach will be heartened by the spirit the side displayed throughout the game, but desperately need to get back to winning ways when they travel to Altrincham Kersal this weekend.
