Drybrook Ladies first match of Championship 2 SW was a massive success despite the pressure and the nerves of the new league and higher standard of rugby, all the summer hard work had paid off with 52- 5 victory at the Manning’s.
Drybrook ladies looked on fire as they blew away Wimbledon on home turf on a lovely sunny Sunday afternoon. The game started very even and Wimbledon looked to unnerve the new side to the league, however after only 6 minutes, Inside Centre Hannah Meek out stepped her opposition and won a 50 meter dash to the try line to score the first try of the game for Drybrook. Just moments later a perfectly executed front catch and drive lineout 10 meters away from Wimbledon’s try line lead to Micha Harris scoring a second try of the day. Drybrook was surly the dominant team in every way from scrummaging to lineouts and speed, skill in the back line. Quick hands from Emma Hughes at the breakdown and the ball found outside centre Ellie Underwood which had a lot to do but with her strength she managed to shake of a defender and score under the posts converting to take the score up to 17 -0 to the home side. Drybrook ladies were moving the ball from right to left and were keeping the ball alive very well indeed.
On the 24th minute Drybrook was once again in an attacking position the ball went across to the right wing then come back, to just to the right
