We entered the competition full of hope in a tight group. The lads didn’t disappoint. In the first couple of games the tackling was hard, fair, low and 100% committed. We comfortably beat Wirral B 6-0. This was probably our best performance, with some very good passing, running and tackling rugby. We then played Old Parks. We were 7-0 up and the game was cut short – we agreed to only play one half as the Old Parks were struggling to keep up. The challenge of Wirral A came next. This was a hard fought encounter with no quarter asked or given, it ended up 1-1, a fair result for two very good sides. Chester came next; they are always a well-drilled good side. We were always in control and came away 3-0 winners. This put us in the final against our old friends and rivals Wirral A. We started slowly and missed a few tackles, ending up 3-0 down and half time. The second half saw us step to the plate . We scored two tries, the momentum was really with the Saints, and we were pounding their line and looking dangerous.

He raced the length of the pitch and scored. 4-2 down, the mountain was too high to climb, Final score 4-2. A great game both teams deserve great credit . All day it was a pleasure to watch the rugby on display

Tom, Rob, Jacob and Jack really gave an excellent display of aggressive rugby. They never took a step back and rucked and mauled fantastically .

In the backs there was some excellent running, particularly Garrett who looked like he was going to score every time he got the ball. Mattie C, Jonny, made some excellent runs and tackled well in defence. Sam McD scored an exc
