I've ducked out early from the working bee at the speedway to be home in time. Smash the P

The Bay escape censure for the previous challenge and are rewarded with one of our special forward driving tries from a lineout to Brendon O'Connor about ten metres in from the right hand corner at the pits end of the ground. McLutchie misses the conversion

Oh dear, might be a spot of bother for one of the HB players after a rather latish challenge sets a 'Poo player down on the ground in a big heap.
That was Emerson. Didn't look like there was much in it.

Time to give goal kicking to Toala

No doubt the weather is affecting the game, but there are some good signs. Our scrum is working well and our line-out drive has led to two tries. Haven't looked at our tackle stats, but I think they're not that flash. While McClutchie's goal kicking - admittedly from difficult angles - isn't going well, the rest of his kicking game is good.
Generally, under the conditions, we're playing reasonably well, but still a lot of improvements to be made.
I hope McNicol's injury isn't too serious

I'd like to see IWL come on early.
Haven't seen anything from Sapsford. Has he had the ball at all?
Just the once, right aginst the right hand touchline about the Bay 10 yard mark. It was in traffic and he kicked ahead. In the meantime another beautiful work of art seem the third lineout drive try (Ash Dixon with his second one) and change of kicker Danny Toala successful from about ten metres to the left of the posts.
