Glenmark-Cheviot


We travelled to Omihi with the sun shining after a very wet week. We had practised hard all week on being more physical and it was a physical Glenmark team we faced.
There were a number of boys in the opposition who liked the fend and when we went high into a tackle we suffered.
That is one thing we will work on this week is continue to tackle low.
Guys we have got to remember that running with the ball is only part of the game, its a fun part but still only a part!
Jayden got into the game in the second half and earned the player of the day award. Blake also showed some skill with a couple of good passes that set him up for the Most improved player.
Sam ran well and with James hunting the ball well they proved a very good combination, linking at one stage to score one of Sam's three tries.
John-Luke was a bit quieter this week but still pulled off a number of great tackles and ran well. Bailey scored a couple of tries after he showed his usual blistering speed.
Luke worked well to turn the ball over when it was on the ground and Jack is getting more involved carting the ball forward. Travis continues to show improvement across all areas and Logan once warmed up started to play his own game.Ben passed well from the base of the scrum and ran well when he was in space.
At one stage with about ten minutes to go we were up by 4 tries but then faded and nearly let them back in.
We will take the win
Well done guys a more physical game and we were up to the challenge.
Well done to all the players who tackled this week you are guys who win the games for us!
Tries to Sam -3
Bailey-2
James-2.
Training 4.30 Loburn on Thursday.
