A little report about the game yesterday.

On a day when the weather was holding clear our mighty 2s travelled to the bright lights of Basildon. Seeing a 24 man squad ready to attack the youth and experience that Basildon had to offer we knew from the 1st minute this would be a tasty encounter.

Basildon took the home advantage and started strong in their open play spreading Witham from wing to wing before going under the posts for their 1st try of the day. Things got worse for Witham when again Basildon used there experience and got themselves another 2 try's before the break. Witham were to get themselves on the scoresheet first half with a penalty in front of the posts taken by a cool headed Michael Vidler.

2nd half Witham changed their dynamic with solid scrummaging and bringing in 2 new centres which gave the Witham fly half Chris Collings a chance to get the ball moving which worked as Witham scored 4 try's in this half. It was unfortunately not enough to win the game as Basildon shone brighter securing the Victory
