8 minutes to go... up by two and we're struggling to repel the constant pressure from St George in our own half.
We find ourselves on our 10 metre line and on the second tackle we had made a combined effort of two metres gained. Struggling to even get players onside, DCE slips into dummy-half and makes 15 valuable metres. On the 4th play of the same set, he does the same thing but this time he made even more metres.. taking us into St George's half. The set was ended by a decent kick from a clearly injured Foran...
Those two plays from our little half back changed not only the territorial advantage that St George had on us in that crucial period, but they changed the whole momentum of the game.
A gritty win!
