ANOTHER ROAD TRIP
SATURDAY PREVIEW
Havant’s record over their previous five home games was something that we were very aware of going into last Saturday. Two wins and losing narrowly in the last five minutes to first, second, and seventh in the table highlights the challenge we were up against. The response by the players to that challenge is something that I am extremely proud of. Our ruthlessness in attack led to some fantastic tries and a total that hasn’t been scored against Havant on their home ground for over a decade. One other aspect that shows the positive growth in the group was during a period of sustained pressure from Havant, just after they had scored. The defensive effort to wrestle back control and territory turned the tide back in our favour and allowed us to finish strongly. Another good Saturday.
This weekend sees us travel the familiar path to Worthing after the cancellation of the game earlier in the month. Worthing have had a difficult start to 2025, playing Tonbridge Juddians followed by Dorking. We know that our second game on the road will be another tough fixture as we look to continue our run of good performances.
Fresh from their week off the Pilgrims host Bromley at the Marine Travel Ground. This is an important fixture as first plays second in an increasingly tight title race. We have a strong team out and they are raring to go. This will be one not to miss.
