Chiltern battled hard but were outclassed

...to compete against one of the strongest teams in the league.

Still with the longest injury list the club has ever known, Chiltern battled hard but were outclassed by a well organised Exmouth side. 28-5 down at half time, Exmouth pulled away in the second half, although Chiltern rallied for a period and scored a second deserved try.

Newcomer David Skelton put in a solid performance and the midfield pairing with skipper Craig Webb looks promising. For the second week running local boys Tom Grammenos and Ollie Cato partnered each other in the second row to good effect and this could be good news for the future.

Try scorers were Dave Skelton and James Atkins.

It doesn’t get any easier, however, as next Saturday Amersham & Chiltern welcomes table topping London Irish Amateur to Weedon Lane.
