Crawley win 60-25

A very muddy, cold and wet morning at Fortress Willoughby this Sunday, but that did not stop an eagerly awaited fixture taking place (at last!). It was evident that Crawley were on fire, with some big tackles from the kick off, causing an early turnover of the ball. Crawley then used their new front three forwards, Sebastian, Ieuan and new player Alistair (first game!) to batter down the middle of the Bognor defence. With Ryan in support Bognor couldn’t cope with an early try from this formidable onslaught! But straight from the re-start Bognor created a space on the left and soon had the scores equal. Scores were exchanged in equal measure for the next 5 minutes but then Crawley unleashed “The Bull” Ieuan Jones! With head down and horns lowered he powered through the Bognor defence 3 times in 3 minutes to set up Jayden twice and then Jack. The second half got under way, after some wise words from the coach about their poor defensive tackling, only to see another new recruit William destroy an attempted Bognor breakout with a ‘boneshaker’ that seemed to wake up the Crawley team! “Cometh the man cometh the Beast” and he arrived! An awesome display of power running from Sebastien backed up by all his team mates saw out an excellent Crawley win! The Crawley supporters and Coaches were delighted with the performance from another highly entertaining and bruising encounter from this excellent Crawley side! It was made more special when Chairman, Mr. Mark Duggan, took time to personally speak to all the boys after the game to show his appreciation of one of the best games he has seen an U9 side play! All the boys should be very proud of their skills and development and will, without a doubt, have other West Sussex clubs looking over their shoulders at these established, skilful players! Coach loved it!!!!
