SWF take full points in horrendous conditions.

The match was only played after a referees pitch inspection deemed it fit and safe to play on. Both teams were tested by the conditions but SWF came out strongly and were soon ahead when Duggan scored the first of four tries within the first few minutes, Brown converted to increase lead to 7-0.

Bothe sides have to be commended on trying to play good rugby in the conditions, and it was SWF who handled things the better and the game turned into a one sided affair by half time with SWF ahead at the break 46-5 with both forwards and backs crossing for tries on a regular basis. East London showed good fighting spirit to score 2 concolation tries but they could not cope with the forward momentum of the SWF team who capitalised on their dominance to deliver a bonus point grabbing 12 tries. This win moves the lads to 2nd in the table, well done to all concerned.

The try scorers for SWF were Duggan 4, Brown 2, Gilbert, Wilson, Gregory, Morgan, Price, Bull. With a further 17 points coming from the boots of Brown and Reeve.

The 1s have a rest day next week and they return to action on the 8th of December away to Old Brentwoods.
