   MATCH REPORTS  
     
  SATURDAY 21 NOVEMBER 2009 - SUTTON COLDFIELD  0 - 20  HEREFORD  
  Hereford 2nds moved into a one point lead over local rivals Luctonians at the top of the Midlands Reserve Team League with a 20 - 0 win at Sutton Coldfield on Saturday. With a number of regulars unavailable the Hereford team had an unfamiliar look but in difficult conditions the players worked hard for each other and after a few errors and indiscretions had been penalised they started to exert pressure on their opponents line. A strong burst by flanker Andrew Potter after fifteen minutes was rewarded when he off-loaded to flyhalf Richard Rees who beat the remaining defence to score the opening try which he also converted for a seven point lead. The visitors continued to use the favourable wind to pin their opponents back and although intricate moves in the backs were never going to be effective in the conditions two powerful bursts from centres Simon Sabel and Paul Rees eventually forced the home side to concede a penalty which Richard Rees converted to stretch the lead to ten points. Hereford finished the half on top but the whistle for the interval gave hope to the hosts who were looking forward to the prevailing wind in the second period.
The second half however did not follow the same pattern as the visitors lifted their game to another level and a charge-down on the halfway line was snapped up by the Hereford flyhalf who sprinted over for his second try. With the game virtually won the visitors turned the screw and pinned their opponents back until a catch and drive from the line-out was rewarded with a try for lock Dan Lewis. With the home defence creaking Hereford dominated play until an injury to one of the Sutton Coldfield backs brought an early end to the game. With the league table now taking shape the title of Champions now appears to rest between the two Herefordshire Clubs who have yet to play each other.
