Nottingham v. The Cornish Pirates.

With nearly three weeks since the last game against Ealing, it was hoped that the boys would play at the same level in this game, and according to the score, they did not disappoint. They started strongly when following a line-out, they scored their first try with no more than two minutes on the clock. The try was scored by Tom Channon and converted by Arwel Robson. No more than five minutes later, John Stevens crossed the line following a driving maul. With another successful conversion by Robson, the score was 0-14. Nottingham however, now started to gain ground and in the 14th minute, scored an unconverted try. Six minutes more on the clock and they were successful with a penalty kick – 8-14. After this score, Nottingham wouldn’t trouble the scoreboard any more. Things became more settled over the last part of the half, although the Pirates were awarded a penalty on 35 minutes which was successfully kicked by Robson to give the Pirates a 9-point lead at half-time – the scoreboard showing 8-17.

The Pirates started the second half as they did the first by scoring in the second minute. Rory Parata charged down a Nottingham clearing kick and Patrick Schickerling gathered the ball and scored the third try for the Pirates. Robson was again successful with the conversion and soon afterwards, a penalty kick – 8-27. Although it was thought that Pirates were now ‘home and dry’ with this score, Nottingham did not give up. They came very close to scoring two or three times, but through mistakes close to the line, they failed. The Pirates’ defence however was firm and they kept out every attack. The icing was put on the cake in the 80th minute when Matt Bolwell received the ball in a line-out and with a driving maul in which the backs joined, James Benjamin went over the line for the bonus point try. Unfortunately Harry Bazalgette was unsuccessful with the conversion. Final Score, Nottingham 8, The Cornish Pirates 32. A brilliant win and 5 points to bring home.
