Game Two

Game 2: Hinckley 67 – 0 Stone

Hinckley remained on the pitch for the second match, taking on a depleted touring side from Stone RFC who had to borrow a few willing players from Wharfedale.

Stone kicked off and Hinckley went immediately on the offensive, runs from A.Whittingham, Goodwin and Jacques taking them into the opposition’s 22. The black and ambers’ first try came following a sublime break by Allen whose superb “out of the back-door” offload found Moore who cantered over the line to give Hinckley an early 5-0 lead.

Hinckley piled on the points with Jacques running at pace in midfield and crashing through to score under the posts, 12 – 0. Smith’s supporting run was rewarded with a final pass on Stone’s 22 metre line to burst through and score, taking the score-line to 17-0. Allen touched down under the posts, converting his own try to extend Hinckley’s lead to 24-0.

Stone had no answer as Hinckley continued to play champagne rugby, Burton crashing over for another try after breaks by Jacques, Moore and Drakeford, the score now 29-0.

Hinckley were relentless and scored again after Allen kicked through for Jacques, who gathered the ball and powered over the try line to further increase their lead to 34-0. The final try of the first half followed breaks by Jacques, Moore and Drakeford, Buckler finally forcing his way over the line from two metres out. Allen converted, taking the half-time score to Hinckley 41-0 Stone.

Hinckley again brought on all their replacements for the second half and showed no mercy, with runs from Underwood, Barnes, Hutton and A. Whittingham taking them deep into the opposition half. Burton picked up from the base of a scrum five metres out and extended his “go-go-gadget” arm to score the opening try of the second period and increase the black and ambers’ lead to 46-0.

Hinckley attacked again from the re-start, Buckler taking a catch superbly and forcing his way over the half-way line. Stone turned over the ball and launched their first meaningful attack, only to be met with crunching tackles by Burton, Buckler, Fountaine, Underwood and L. Whittingham. Hinckley regained possession and took the game back into Stone’s 22 through typically bullish runs by Barnes and Burton. The ball was recycled and passed out wide to Dewfield on the right wing but he was tackled five metres short of the line.

Hinckley finally broke through Stone’s dogged defence, Barnes scoring under the posts after strong runs by Burton and Goodwin. Allen converted, taking the score line to 53-0.
Hinckley’s 10th try followed some awesome work by the forwards, maintaining possession through excellent handling and support play, taking the black and ambers back into the opposition’s 22 before Drakeford darted over to score. Allen converted superbly from out wide, increasing Hinckley’s lead to 60-0.

Hinckley’s final score came shortly after, Underwood leaping over from a ruck following breaks by Golding and Dewfield . Another fantastic conversion from Allen on the touchline took the final score to Hinckley 67-0 Stone.
