Well it was a warm night, but by game time it had cooled off enough to have a good 12 vs 12 game. This left more room for some good ball movement and runs by the backs aided by Ryan, "G" and Tom H. Tom had a number of good runs from the full back position bobbing and weaving his way down the field. Our forwards had good ball with the roving Derek, rambling Frank and straight ahead Jason. Deputing at prop (uncontested) and with the support of Tim was JP. Rounding out the side was Mike O. as scrum half (player of the game) supported by Brian B as outside centre and myself and Carrie as wings....and the wings got some good ball! Tackling was remarkably good with a focus on the Chambray's centre who took a bit to bring down. In the end, a win by the NOBs, but more importantly a good time with the graduating Chambray group back at their mess hall. We did unfortunately have a one injury with Tom H. hurting his shoulder at the very end of the game, hopefully a quick recovery as we have a June 9 game. At the beginning of the game we had a moment in memory of Chuck and hoisted a pint afterward in his honour.
Thanks you all for the game it was a good Monday night.

PS. Saturday JUNE 9 @1;00 - Nobs/Silverbacks vs the GITS. Looking for a strong turn out for this game, it is at home against a good side.
