Blue & Gold come close in tough conditions in local derby
The game started like any local derby should, a few tickles and hand bags from the first 5 minutes and some ferocious tackles from both sides. It was the newly promoted side who started the better of the 2 teams with a flowing move through all the hands in the backline to score in the corner. The conversion was added. 7-0 Welwyn.10mins.
Same weather, different result: Saints gain revenge for early season draw
Having drawn the away fixture Saints we’re in no mood to oblige again, with every player keen to avenge a sub par performance. Despite a sticky track the Saints got off to a flyer, working their way back up into the Royston 22, Harding slid through a gap, offloaded to Toby ‘Manu’ Sweeney who put Sam Howell through under the sticks.
Saints bounce back to winning ways
Thanks to Tony for the words... After the bitter disappointment of the last gasp penalty against Hitchin, Saints were keen to rediscover the winning ways needed to push for the upper reaches. Harrow kicked off on another balmy October day on a fantastic deck. Woollard, Webb, Boost to Satchell, and within 1-minute saints we 7 - 0 up. The start everyone was looking for. Harrow responded with a penalty of their own but Saints took full control of the first half.
Last gasp penalty denies Saints
Saints travelled north on Saturday to take on league leaders Hitchin for the first meeting between the two sides since the 2019 Presidents Trophy Final. That afternoon Saints were victorious with a last gasp try, whilst Hitchin where promoted as Champions of Herts Middlesex One after dominating the league throughout the season. This season both sides have made a strong start and were unbeaten going into the game.
Presidential performance in front of the Vice Presidents
Saints found the next level of performance on a pristine track at Boggymead this Saturday afternoon. In front of a partisan VP crowd, well oiled from a flowing bar (and customary cheese board) the Saints ran in 9 unanswered tries. Tabard played with pride and tough shoulders as they kept going until the last but ultimately ran out of steam on the kind of afternoon we’ve all missed so much over these recent times.
