Remember the National Cup?
The final was last weekend - you will recall that if we had beaten Wimborne by sufficient margin it would have potentially mucked last weekend up a bit?
Fortunately we didn't because a) we would have missed a great weekend, and b) we'd have been stuffed. Big time.
I say that with some authority because Peter, the Wimborne coach and reader of this blog, has emailed me the following details
"I thought I would update you on our National cup visit to Lichfield where we unfortunately lost to Leodonias 15-5. The game was as expected a tight game with Leos scoring in the first 5 mins before adding a second midway through the half. We then pegged them back with a score just before half time.
"The second half we were camped in their half for long periods of time but unable to break their lines of defence only for Leos to score a break away try to seal the game."
Leos a good side obviously - and congratulations to them on their win. Indeed they are quite outstandingly good - apparently they had five TDG girls on show, which is more than most regions can come up with (East, who I believe have more TDGs than anyone, have only six!).
