Blues U18's enjoy convincing win


The Blues Under 18s enjoyed a convincing 32-12 win at the Dairyfield on 
Wednesday against their Gloucester counterparts.
They created more attacking possibilities in good field positions than the West 
Country youngsters and had the backs to finish them off.
In front of a healthy crowd, who were rewarded by the appearance of the sun 
before the kick off, they were 13-7 up at half time.
Tries were scored by Kent Birch and Ollie Smyth, and Tom McAloon added a 
penalty.
The cherry and whites pulled back seven points with Julian Osborne’s touchdown 
converted by Tiff Eden.
A wonder try by left wing Ellis Benham added to the Blues lead before Charlie 
Scott again gave the English side hope with a try Ellis converted.
However, although they threatened briefly Blues finished them off with Birch’s 
second and one from centre Gavin Smith, Sam Withers converting both.
Morgan Whitehead refereed assisted by Gareth John.
