North Shore 10 Middlesex 0

First of all, huge thanks to Kevin Donovan for his work on the lights and for his ongoing work with the goal posts, field, etc. He saved the day by fixing the lights after a brief outage in the second half.

The game started with us carrying the play and sitting in the attacking end for most of the first half. On three occasions we opted for points, but the ball sailed wide on two of those, leaving the game at 3-0. This score remained until late in the game, when North Shore found space on the wing and capped the scoring with a converted try to go up 10-0. Holding the Middlesex attack out of the try zone for a long stretch at the end, we maintained the shutout.


B-side: NSRFC 12 Middlesex 12

The B game included some good running and hits as usual, and the details escape me.
