Full credit to all involved today they took on board all that was said before today’s game every player gave that extra effort and support which showed in the score line.
Game 1
Sandbach 40 A&K 0
Straight from the kick off we chased and made an excellent tackle which resulted in us gaining possession and finding space on the outside which enabled us to score. We continued in this vein for the whole of the first 20 minutes. Both forwards and backs were straight onto the ball and everybody contributed to a good all round performance. We got the ball away from the rucks much quicker and moved the ball at pace though the hands which enabled the backs to score numerous tries.
It was good to see the forwards add to the score from a powerful drive by the whole pack - the hooker managing to get the ball down, and a prop scoring from the conversion. Every player played their part in a very impressive performance.
Game 2
Sandbach 30 A&K 0
This performance shows that we have skills and competent players across the whole squad. The forwards were even more effective at the breakdown than the opening game and the backs moved the ball out wide for us to score some good tries in the corners.
Every player wanted the ball and we made sure we competed at every breakdown which resulted in us winning good quick ball and we used it very well.
Thanks to A&K for 2 really good games-they never gave in and tackled their hearts out in true rugby spirit.
Full credit must go to all the players who showed why they want to play for Sandbach Rugby Club.
