Tough Friendly For Chinnor Seconds

CHINNOR RFC Match Report – Away Friendly – September 29. Score: Chinnor 2nd, 18 Pts vs. Southend, 25 Pts.
Tries: Adam Winchester, Luke Wellbelove
Conversions: Gareth Duder x 1
Penalties: Gareth Duder x 2
THIS was a tough game played by two good teams but still a game that Chinnor seconds will be very disappointed to have lost. They had full control in the first half with a good try by Adam Winchester that was well converted by Gareth Duder.
Two successful penalties followed by Duder and the first half finished 13 points to nil in Chinnor?s favour and well in control.

The change came in the second half with a bad start and Chinnor gave away two soft converted tries a penalty as well as a drop goal, all within a fifteen-minute period. This was followed six minutes later with another try and Chinnor seconds were left chasing the game.
They were unlucky on a number of occasions with the ref blowing Chinnor up for wheeling the scrum, and were unaware that they weren?t allowed to. This also caused Chinnor to lose a lot of attacking moves where they could have scored.
Chinnor did score another try by Luke Wellbelove and the game finished 18 points to 25 for Southend.

Alan Cawston and Luke Wellbelove shared man of the match. Luke played his first game for Chinnor and his first in 3 years.
