Saturday’s Big Challenge

CANTERBURY V DORKING

Worthing over the years has never been an easy place to win; the last time we achieved this was the season we were promoted. Granted, Worthing are having problems with injuries, but a win on the road is exactly what we needed and our position in the league table also improved significantly. I can’t say that we made it easy and staring down the barrel of three scores behind we gave ourselves a challenging situation before we fought our way out of it. The composure we showed to control the final 15 minutes was very pleasing to see and was the difference between the two teams. That and Nathan Morris bagging another hat trick!

This week I’m really looking forward to seeing how we perform against the top team in the league. Dorking have started with maximum points in the first five games and are playing rugby to match this achievement. Last season’s fixture at the Marine Travel ground was decided in the final minute of the game and with both squads stronger than last season I am expecting more of the same.
