Blueboys beat the tide to win on the Island

The Blueboys B XV travelled to Mersea Island to play an unbeaten team who were top of their league.

With the home side scoring first, the Chelmsford players needed to dig deep to turn the tide. In the second quarter of the game Henry Payne and Jack Pearce both scored from set piece scrums. Steve Allen was up to his tricks! Half time score Mersea Island 5 Chelmsford 12.

In the second half more vets found their way on the pitch and both Gordan Ash and Rich Wild played significant roles in the final quarter. With Rich at tight head prop, the referee awarded a penalty try - Mersea 5 Chelmsford 19. After Mersea's second score they had wind in their sails and Gordon Ash made a try saving tackle on the right wing at the death.

Final score - Mersea Island 10 Chelmsford 2nd XV 19
