Seaford draw in a close encounter at the Salts

Seaford II took on St Leonards in what was a thrilling game that was end to end throughout the 80mins. Seaford dominated the fast paced game with ball in hand, but where undone in the scrum area and the break downs. St Leonards where big and hard hitting and where strong in the kicking game, it was an encounter that showed the strengths of fast backs and the benefits of having big hitting forward pack.

Seaford Handed debuts to 3 players with 2 lads stepping up from the Cults showing the progress players can make through the club both players having excellent games, Seaford also had 2 players making the 1st starts as props.

With minutes to go Seaford where 32-39 down and with a strong break through the line Seaford broke through to bring it back to 37-39 and that’s when controversy struck, Seaford stuck the conversion between the sticks but the ref thought it went wide, much to the credit of St Leonards they approached the ref to say the kick was good and the ref then gave the conversion and shortly after called an end to the game with it being 39-39 at full time and a result that was a fair reflection on the game itself.
