With only 16 eventually making it down today this very much felt like the last game of our season . With county boys away and some of our stronger players resting Teddington made us work really hard today . That said , the close competition and enthusiasm of the hosts made it one of the most exciting games of the season . ( not least down to the superb weather )
Its hard to comment on the specifics of the game , the first half was pretty frantic although Barnet were good in the rucks but centres were too slow closing the gap meaning Teddington were able to ship the ball out and their superb 15 punished us for it . The packs were very evenly matched and it was once again slightly better fitness that saw Barnet eventually take the win .
There were good performances all round with everyone earning praise from the coaches . Some great tackles fromJoe and Owen and some amazing runs from Reece .Its hard to look past Thomas NS whos turns of speed and 2 tries were very impressive , however despite getting in the 9/10 channel on a number of occasions , and doing what looked like a belly flop on one of the rucks it was Yunus Yuhunger who earns MOM today for his great driving runs , for protecting the ball and making some great tackles . Yunus , be very proud of yourself today .
