Patched Up Superblues Crash Out
Hertford 20 Macclesfield 32
A Superblues side missing a host of first team players including influential Fly Half Kieran Davies ultimately proved no match for their Division Three North opponents. Leading 20-13 at the break thanks to a brace from Charlie Thomas and a Ben Storey try close to half time it looked as if Hertford might carve out an unlikely victory. The visitors though who went in front after only 3 minutes when Tony Howcroft crashed over the line put together 19 unanswered second half points to ensure a place in round two. Skipper Ross Winney was the star of the show scoring 22 points including a stunning 40 metre drop goal after 63 minutes. Hertford must now regroup for the visit of Southend in the league next Saturday.
Hertford: Lewis: Justice: Sloan: Storey: Thomas: Spowart: Wood: West: Harris: Patton: Baseley: Johnson: Church: Wilson: Vaileti
