5th Team/Vets
Despite the favorable score-line, for Sandbach this was a game of missed opportunities. The Sandbach forwards were more powerful than their opposite numbers and were able to supply what good ball emerged in a scrappy match. This resulted in a brace of well-taken tries in each half. The West Park back line was impressive when it was able to run the ball and scored a good try early in the second half. Good tackling by the Sandbach backs ensured this feat was not repeated; and their only other score came from a dubious penalty try. All-in-all, a good win for Sandbach. Man-of-the-Match: Simon Battersby Scorers: Simon Battersby (1T) Mark Bradford (1T) Peter Reed (1P,2C) Steve Reeves (1T) John Richardson (1T)
