Fitting Tribute


Hazell Memories

Our first league victory of 2014 was a fitting tribute to both Andy Hazell and Mike Tindall. The former has had to retire at the age of 35 while the latter was actually on the pitch as we once again beat Quins 25-20 ....

It was a tight game throughout as we came back strongly in the second half after we had to make a late change to the line-up when Martyn Thomas failed a late fitness test  - Shane Monahan coming in.
Quins quickly went into a 6-0 lead thanks to early penalties, but once James Hudson had enjoyed his customary spell in the bin, we took the lead. Hudson barging through a couple of tackles and offloaded to Kalamafoni who raced in under the posts to give us a one point lead.
Quins came back withy a converted try from Lindsay-Hague to make it 13-7 to the visitors at half time.
The second half belonged to Glaws with Cook slotting a pen before Matt Kvesic went over from a line-out and then, as pressure mounted, Murphy crashed over after great work by Monahan. Cook converted and added a penalty buit Quions weren't finished and a comnverted try after  Dave Ward was driven set up a tense finish.
Good game  - and an emotional one as we paid tribute to Hazell.
