Caldy’s good start goes West with heavy defeat

CALDY suffered their heaviest defeat for a considerable time as Westoe outscored their visitors in National Two North by 50-12.

Caldy started the first half brightly and produced some great defence playing up a sizeable slope to keep the home side to 14-6. Caldy were first to score when Richard Vasey kicked a penalty after Westoe were deemed to have intentionally slowed the ball down.

On 10 minutes, James Clark scored the first try for Westoe as a missed tackle by Woof allowed him to run into space and touch down out wide.

On 21 minutes, Richard Vasey kicked a second penalty for Caldy to take the lead but Mark Bedworth hit back straight away with a drop goal from underneath the posts and then kicked two further penalties to take the half-time score to 14-6.

Caldy were hoping that with the slope in their favour it would be one-way traffic in the second half but Westoe had other ideas.
