New Territory at Senghenydd (U9's)

The Dale ventured to new territory at Senghenydd on a day of mixed weather.

Senghenydd started the game and the Dale showed some great defence but were not quite strong enough to stop Senghenydd scoring, 1-0.  Zac Tucker responded with a quick run and offload to Thomas Gregory to equalise, 1-1. From the restart Zac Tucker and Gabriel Jones put in some great tackles before Gabriel tackled the hosts into touch.  William Davey had a good run passing to Thomas Gregory, he almost made it to the try line and passed to Jordan Way to score, 1-2.  William Morgan made a thumping tackle stopping Senghenydd in their tracks; they persisted and managed to cross the try line, 2-2.  Dale restarted and passed back to William Morgan, he went off on a determined run with good support by William Davey, the support wasn’t needed and William Morgan crossed the whitewash, 2-3.  Senghenydd caught out the Dale defence and scored, 3-3.  Dale restarted and found themselves in touch, Senghenydd took the ball and Gabriel made another great tackle, followed by tackles from William Davey, Zac Tucker, William Morgan and a final swooping tackle from Dylan Caddy before they scored, 4-3. Dafydd Price restarted the game and made a good offload; we saw some great teamwork before being penalised for a hand off.

First Third Senghenydd 4- Oakdale 3.

Senghenydd restarted and were held by a driving tackle from Jordan Way, William Davey picked up a loose ball, he passed to Dylan Caddy who had a fab run but was pushed into touch, Senghenydd used the possession to score, 5-4.  Dale responded with a great try from Thomas Gregory, 5-5.  Senghenydd were approaching the try line but were prevented from scoring by James Williams forcing them into touch.  Oliver Cooke took the ball he passed out but the ball was picked up by the hosts and scored, 6-5.  Zac Tucker had a good run from the restart but Senghenydd gained the ball, Dafydd Price and Jordan Way put in some good tackles forcing a knock on.  William Morgan gained some ground before passing to William Davey, another knock on gave Senghenydd a scrum, William Morgan took them down causing another knock on, this time the ball was passed to Thomas Gregory who almost made it to the try line before dropping the ball, Senghenydd picked up the ball by try as they might the Dale couldn’t stop them scoring, 7-5.

Second Third Senghenydd 7- Oakdale 5.

After car troubles Max Rossiter had now taken to the field of play.  Senghenydd restarted, Dale showed some great defence but the hosts scored, 8-5.  Dale showed great teamwork and passed to Max Rossiter who forced his way through the defence to score, 8-6.  Senghenydd responded with a try, 9-6.  Oliver Cooke advanced into the hosts half and gave a good offload to William Morgan; he pumped his legs and escaped tackles and passed out to Thomas Gregory to claim the try, 9-7.  Gabriel Jones made another good tackle with great technique, followed by Thomas Gregory pushing back the hosts number 3, the rest of the team put in some great tackles before Senghenydd scored, 10-7.  Thomas Gregory responded with a quick try, followed by another by Senghenydd, 11-8.   Connor Thomas had an excellent run but was unlucky to find touch, Zac Tucker and William Morgan made great tackles and William Davey picked up a loose ball, he headed down the touch line with the corner flag in sight, Senghenydd did really well to chase him and he was tackled into touch.
