Marlborough and Minety Tri-angular Sun 23 Jan 11

The U11s enjoyed a triangular fixture visting Marlborough together with Minety (if you've never heard of Minety, they're near Malmesbury).

Salisbury A 4             Marlborough 4

As the season progresses the size difference between Salisbury boys and the opposition has reduced to the point where this was the first game in which Salisbury actually looked considerably larger than their opponents.

Jacob Collins scored the first try, taking full advantage of his momentum to power through the opposition.  Tom McFarland made a superb interception of a well-telegraphed lazy Marlborough pass to step over the line and score.  In a true Mars-Bar moment, Josh Ellis chased the ball nearly the full length of the pitch to make an excellent try – from his own kick.  Finally, Harry Mould made a controversial try which, after a dramatic pause, was awarded by the referee.  The boys played well and it was a satisfying result..
