Sometimes the game just gets away from you. East Coast Bays came at us, with the kind of aggressive rugby we love to play. Strong, tight, grinding rugby up the middle of the park in the first 15 minutes, it’s a trade mark which can sink the best of spirits. They asked the big questions of our team and unfortunately we didn’t stick to our game plan and tried to push things that weren’t on. Our handling errors mounted up and we put ourselves under more pressure. During the last 15 minutes of the second half, the boys found there mojo again and started playing some excellent rugby, which was a real positive. Congratulations to ECB on their win, they seemed to just want it more on the day.
