Ampthill 1881 38-22 Esher Cardinals
Match Report…..
Ampthill 1881 got their league campaign back on track after last weeks defeat to Chinnor, with a bonus point win against Esher Cardinals. A sunny day on pitch four, started with some colossal tackles from both sides, but Ampthill made the first advance into the oppositions 22 and Ben Wilkinson crashed over, only to look up and see that the try was disallowed for obstruction. Esher worked their way back up to the halfway line, only for scrum half George De Cothi to snipe up the blindside of a ruck and put Baily Thomas in for his first try of the day. Sharps kick making the score 7-0 after 11 minutes. 1881 were then guilty of throwing to many offloads or going for kicks which were easily dealt with by Esher who then came back to score, after holding onto possession for 10 minutes. The next time Ampthill touched the ball, it was Thomas who intercepted an Esher pass on the half way line, and with an outrageous side step, rounded the covering defence to score in the corner. Back came Esher again after more sustained pressure to close the first half at 12-10.

Ampthill had done ok in defence but there was obvious work to do and a change of tactics was needed for the second half. Ampthill probably only had about 15% possession in the whole first half! The change in tactics, started working immediately and more positive rugby and much more accuracy with ball in hand lead to Charlie Fleckney to touch down off the back of a rolling maul. Thomas then went over for his hattrick and the four try bonus point was in the bag with 30 minutes to play. 24-10.

Ampthills backs were starting to let loose on a tiring Esher defence with De Cothi and Sam Baker both scoring and 1881 were 38-10 up. Ampthills scrum which had been under massive pressure and examination from the start was now getting the upper hand. Esher brought on coach Tom Cheeseman for the rest of the game and his influence was massive as Esher scored another two trys to also claim the four try bonus point.

A very physical game with several players coming off battered and bruised. Overall the 1881 were delighted to come away with a bp win to keep them up the top end of the league. Richmond Vikings next week will be a massive step up.

After the first 40 points, is it even sporting any more? 😄

Well played!

It felt much closer than the score suggests. They attacked frequently and well but our defence today was unbelievable
