GITS Game Review
The GITS were in fine form yesterday, they scored a bunch, but we scored some nice trys as well! Complements to the grounds crew who were actually able to produce a green and relatively soft field – unbelievable considering the hot dry weather. Special thanks to the NOBS that made the trip, our Lockport and Hamilton friends, and the GITS that filled out our ranks. Our forwards were solid in the scrums, but maybe not as mobile as necessary against the fast moving GITS. Our backs did well with ball in hand with some good ball movement. But the GITS were able to capitalize on our mistakes one to many times. We were able to take advantage of their mistakes as well with a quick line out try and a some Brad crash ball. Can’t forget to mention Ted’s “sprint triathlon” in the morning before the game, now that is a warm up! A good effort all round, and something too build on. We still need to work on our numbers to make make the most of our fixtures.
