The team stayed in touch all game but unfortunately the referees arm seemed to only go one way and dished out the majority of penalties to Woodlands. A dubious yellow card also had a big effect on the game with Woodlands capitalising on the scoreboard while one of the POB flankers was in the bin.
Woodlands built a handy lead and unfortunately time ran out the clock before the boys could close the gap.
POB lock Craig Smith making some yards up the middle:
Due to a managerial error the kicking tee didn't make it to the game and 2 gimme kicks in front of the post were missed and things didn't improve from there. The boys tried hard all game but it was just one of those days where things didn't click despite all the effort the boys put in. Final score 31 - 5 to Blues.
