1st XV v Geraldine RFC Match Report

This was the final match of a wholly successful tour and it saw us come up against our first club team which saw a different style of play for us to try our hand against. They were less organised and much more scrappy than the school teams we played and was much harder than we expected. The game started relatively poorly and we went down to an early penalty and then an uncoverted try. We finally managed to assert some dominance and saw James Canty cross the line. We camped ourselves in their half then Jack Valler barrelled his way over just before half time. The second half was a simirlarly scrappy affair and they had attacks which were well defended then as the half came to an end James Canty crossed for another try after a quick tap penalty. The game ended 15-8 to Whitgift and it was a good final test for the tour.
