Welwyn Saints 55 - Dorking 5

Welwyn Warriors travelled to Dorking back in May, knowing a draw would see them crowned league champions. It wasn't to be as Dorking deservedly won 45-17. This season's meeting was a very different story!

From the kick off Welwyn-Saints powered into their opposition. The forwards winning them plenty of ball and the back line firing on all cylinders! Skipper Hannah Gallagher grabbing 3 tries herself in the first half and England trialist Alex Robertson, notching a further two, the second set up by a glorious grubber kick from England U20 player Megan Williams. Georgia Peedle grabbed another, after a good move started by Sam Voyle, as Saints went in 36-0 at half time.

Dorking re-grouped at half-time and started the second half in determined fashion. A late arrival for Saints was another England triallist, Geri Thomas who came on at the interval, linking well with Frankie Dawson a strong Welwyn forward drive saw Milly Fuggles go over to make it 41-0. Almost at once Dorking scored to make it 41-5. Great work from the Saints pack kept the momentum with the home side. Mica Gooding and Laura Haddon having fine games. Vicky Moxom crossed the line as she was tackled and just missed out on a try! Hannah Marques & Emma Burgess had great games in the front row as <> <> the home side pounded their visitors. Great Handling from Emma Wilson & Olivia Payne helped skipper Gallagher to her fourth try and yet another from Robertson as the game finished 55-5.
