Okehampton seconds 43
Tiverton seconds 7
PLAYING up the slope against the breeze the seconds needed to start well, and after some good interpassing Richard Drake pirouetted off the side of a ruck to score an unconverted try.
Then within minutes the super seconds put together the best passage of play of the day when Ben Wollens in his own words' shockingly falling over his own feet' inches from the line only for the seconds to recycle and Phil Harding, not to be outdone by his second row partner, crashing over for a try, Buzz Brimacombe converting.
Okehampton seconds now took their foot off the gas and allowed Tiverton seconds to get back in the game and after several phases near the home sides line, Tiverton crossed for a converted try.
Half time came and the seconds knew they needed to up their game and minutes off the start Richard Drake bagged his second try, Buzz converting.
The seconds were looking to move the ball wide where possible and from a play inside their own half Pete Herold-Taylor powered through a gap to run from his own half for a try, Buzz converting again.
With the rain now coming down and the errors increasing partly due to losing most of the best match balls over the fence, the standard of rugby dropped a bit, but the seconds still managed three more tries.
The first by Steve Alford to improve his chances of first team rugby, the other two by, the outstanding again, Richie Friend who was determined to take as much contact as he could to score, Buzz converting one.
