Work Still To Do

WEEKEND PROSPECTS

Two from two and six from six across the 1st XV, Pilgrims and Canons, not a bad start!

A result away at Sevenoaks is one that we have been hunting down for the past three seasons. Five points on the road, at a ground we haven’t won at in recent years is something that we are most definitely proud of, but on review we know there is still a lot to work on. We clocked up 16 penalties and 21 turnovers, a combined loss of possession that is double our target. Our lineout maul dominance and some emotional defence sets ultimately proved the difference, but we must be more effective with the ball if we want to play the brand of rugby that we are aiming for and show the improvements we believe we are making. This weekend against Worthing we will be focused on taking a big step forward in our attacking execution.

The Pilgrims ran out 43-17 winners against Sevenoaks 2nd XV in a convincing performance. They look to continue this strong form against Ashford tonight (Friday) 7.30pm kick off. The Pilgrims squad is full of players pushing for 1st XV places and this is driving the group forward every session we have together. The Pilgrims Friday night lights were unmissable evenings last season, and I fully expect the same from this one.

Matt Corker, Head Coach
