Hinckley perform well against unknown opponents Kesteven

Unknown opponents in the shape of Kesteven we're Hinckley's next match, and with two wins from two from their opening matches and a huge number 8 terrorising defences, another tough match was on the cards. This proved to be exactly that, although the Hinckley forward pack were stronger in the scrum and competed well at the breakdown, piled on the pressure, and when Webb converted this pressure put Hinckley deservedly ahead, Kesteven continued to show some excellent rugby and finally crossed for a score of their own to level at half time. A tough battle continued on into the second half, Hinckley coping well with the huge number 8 with excellent tackling from Nixon, Ellershaw,Smith,Lockett,and Webb, and looked to get a well earned draw, but Kesteven piled on the pressure late in the match, and when Hinckley won a scrum yards short of their own line, only for the opposing extremely quick scrum half to force Hinckley into a mistake and cross for the win.Hinckley 5pts Kesteven 10pts.
