Thurrock 5ths               10

Old Brentwoods 3rds   31

Thurrock put out a 5^th XV for the first time in about 10 years and gave a creditable performance against a well drilled and fit Old Brentwood team.  Thurrock, with a mixture of older players and new and inexperienced players to the game, committed themselves well in the first half, giving as good as they got and turning around at 10 – 10 at half time.  The two tries for Thurrock were scored by Scott Williams and Ricky Fuller.

Old Brentwood took control in the second half following two unfortunate injuries to the Thurrock team and a lack of fitness contributed to the loss at the end.  However, Thurrock can hold their heads high, being competitive to the end in what was a very enjoyable game.  

They are looking forward to their next encounter against Runwell 2nds away next Saturday (26^th).
