RUGBY REPORTING: 14 MAN MANOR MAKE A WINNING START
Mavericks U18 15 – 24 Eton Manor U18
On this sunny September morning, Eton Manor scored some impressive tries to make a positive start to life in Colts Rugby, despite receiving a red card in the second half.
From kick off, Manor lost the ball from being held up by suspiciously high Mavericks tackling. The ball was spread wide from the scrum with a
penalty being won just on the 22. The ball was kicked into touch, with Mavericks’ big flanker driving over at the lineout to put them ahead just two minutes in, the kicker failing to add the conversion
Manor didn’t let the early score cause a drop in heads, with Henry and Pierre making some strong carries, Mavericks and their unsportsmanlike tricks unable to cope. Numerous penalties were conceded for obstructing quick plays and making high tackles.
In the eleventh minute, Dan Davey executed another impressive penalty kick to gain ground down the touchline. Although the throw was poor and possession was turned over, Manor won it back for a five metre scrum. Three minutes and numerous carries later, Chris Molden used his tall frame to stretch over under the posts, coolly converted by fly half Ale Minns.
Mavericks became wasteful in possession, suffering from heavy Manor pressure, but with Manor failing to take advantage themselves, the game entered a quiet spell.
