Tring 2s back to winning ways

Michael Hicks

Four tries to nil saw Tring win well against a determined Fullers

Tring started well with all the play in the first few minutes but then a turnover against the run of play lead to a spirited Fullers attack. A great break by Dan Wilton at 8 saw him dummy the first defender and pass to Harvey Draper who made some serious yards before being caught.
Good phases in the Fullers 22 then led to Dan Wilton being put through a hole on a great line for a 15m carry to the line. Unfortunately Jack Doodson missed the conversion. 5-0
More good pressure by Tring led to the ball being held up over the Fullers line. Scrum 5.
After a solid scrum, the Fullers defence did well and Tring were penalised for holding on the floor.
A nasty shoulder injury to the Fullerians 10 saw the first half called slightly early with play then resuming on the 3s pitch while he was looked after and an ambulance called…
Tring started the second half well, pressuring the Fuller defence. Dave Cogger carried hard, knocking back his defender before neatly offloading to JP who used his feet to snake in. It was just the 5 points as Jack Doodson missed the conversion. 10-0
With 30 minutes to go, Jamie Street came on for George Hickey and Brandon Smith for Ben Moulton. Poor discipline gave Fullers opportunities before a great turnover by Hamish Michie and Chad Kotze regained Tring possession
More Tring pressure pegged Fullers back into their 22 and when a loose clearance kick landed in the arms of Tommy Ward in space, he took full advantage to step and jink in from the 22.
Noah Jarvis stepped up in an attempt to add the extras, but fell short with his attempt. 15-0
A great break by Noah then saw the ball go just forward to Brandon who would have otherwise done well in the space he had available
Chris rose took a wide ball on the outside shoulder of the defence and gained a head of stream making a good 20m before the brave Fullerians fullback threw himself under the wheels to bring him down. This was to no avail as Rosey offloaded Jamie street, who in turn put Dave Cogger over the line for a real crowd pleaser of a try. Jack Doodson returned to kicking duties, breaking his duck to add the extra 2. 22-0
With his spirits high, Chris Rose looked to tap and go on the next few penalties, keeping the defence, the crowd and his supporting players on their toes.
Fullers kept playing and after a final defensive effort, the game finished 22-0 to Tring.
Man of the Match could have gone several ways with Dan Wilton going well at 8 and JP showing his usual class, however, the accolade went to Hamish Michie for his workrate and doggedness on the flank.
