As you may have seen we started the season with a 30 points to 19 victory over Bank of England yesterday. I'm not sure we'll have a full match report but here is all you need to know:

a) We played ok but need significant improvements in both dealing with the new scrum contest and also not butchering so many excellent chances!
b) We had two debutants who both had great games - well done James and Ali
c) We had several guest players including old school legends Frenchie, PK and Alun Pie-Chart and also Big Steve II who guested in his first game for BA in the front row.
d) Scorers:
Tries: Oli, Frenchie, Ali Burr (on debut)
Cons: Oli x 3
Pens: Oli x 2
Man of match: Oli for his 20 point return, his 100% perfect place kicking performance from all over the park, and excellent general play.

Quick quotes from the post match interviews:
Man of match Oli O'rawe: "Great to be back playing to a level near where i was a few years ago. But on the evidence of today's game i still need to work on my catching when near the try line!"

Returning fly half Alun Pie-Chart: "We messed up 4 or 5 clear scoring chances but still won fairly comfortably. Plenty to work on but a win and a great start to the season. Good to be back"

Returning legend and try scorer Frenchie Moison: "A fantastic day! It felt great to play along side 'pre-internet era' oldies along with the new generation. Nothing was more magic than seeing Cocksy catch a restart! I've been waiting for that day since 1997!!"
