Report by I Wallis

The game today was I would say of a battling team and playing until the end.
On your last meeting away the score was 17 - 17.
And the team that arrived at Mansfield was a different side and stronger.
There was some very good rugby played by yourself and when you were playing and communicating you made ground and made the space to score.
But fair play to Dronfield who came to play showing you the respect you have earned for yourselves this year.
Your scrums and lineouts were again very good causing Dronfield problems.
Yet your follow up play today was slow on many occasions leading to you getting turned over.
We do need the communication in your play as a number of times the backs had no Dronfield players in front of them.
The tackles that went in were very strong and solid your rugby aggression is there.
We had a lot of very positive things today and some we need to work.
The first half Try for Mansfield was scored by
Sam Troop with conversion by Harry Brough.
Half-time score
Mansfield 7 - 33 Dronfield
The second half Tries were scored by
Harry Brough both scores and two conversions.
Your play in the second half was much better.
So we will take all the positives from this game and make No mistake yes Dronfield won but they knew they had been in a game.
Final Score
Mansfield 21 - 61 Dronfield
Well done to Isaac Harris on his MotM.
